  • regularly review organizational structure, headcount and turnover, employee wellbeing, inclusion and diversity;
  • regularly review with the President and CEO his plans for the structure, development and succession of the leadership team;
  • work to continuously improve Finning’s philosophy and guidelines on compensation;
  • ensure a broad plan of executive compensation is established that is competitive and motivating to attract, hold and inspire executive management and other key employees, while taking into account the overall cost of compensation of the executive management and the interests of shareholders; and
