Form 990, Part VI, Line 11FORM 990 REVIEW PROCESS:Drafts of the Form 990 are prepared by an outside tax accountant and reviewed by the Director of Financial Administration, the Vice President and outside legal counsel. Once a final draft has been prepared, all members of the board of directors are invited to review the form and provide additional comments and questions approximately one month prior to filing. After making any remaining edits and discussing outstanding items, the form is submitted to the IRS.
FORM 990, PART VI, Line 12CMONITORING AND ENFORCING CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY:Pew Research requires each member of the Board of Directors to annually complete a form to disclose any potential conflicts of interest. The forms are collected by the Board Secretary who provides them to the Board Chair for review and approval. All employees of Pew Research including officers and key employees are required, upon hiring and annually thereafter, to report their potential conflicts of interest. The Human Resources Director meets with Pew Research Center's officers to review all potential conflicts. All actual conflicts are reported to the Board of Directors. IF A PERSON HAS AN ACTUAL CONFLICT, he or she is PROHIBITED FROM PARTICIPATING in the DECISION-MAKING AND DELIBERATIONS RELATED TO THE TRANSACTION. Forms pertaining to officers and key employees are approved by the president, all other staff forms are approved by key employees (project directors) and the president's form is approved by the Board. Throughout the year, each individual subject to the Conflict of Interest policy is required to update her/his Disclosure Statement to include any information required to be disclosed and shall seek prior approval for any activity, affiliation, membership or transaction required to be disclosed under the Conflict of Interest provisions of this policy. Once approved or disapproved, the signed Disclosure Statements shall be returned to the Vice President, who shall maintain a record of the disclosures.

The compensation study considers similar organizations and industry compensation surveys when determining reasonable compensation for its officers and key employees. The results of the study are reported in a memo to the board of directors. The Board uses the memo in review, deliberation, and approval of the compensation for officers and key employees. The process was last completed in May 2011.
