Compensation and Benefits
Baxter provides its employees with comprehensive compensation and benefits programs. The company's global total compensation philosophy is to provide market-competitive pay while rewarding employees for individual and business performance.
Baxter's total compensation package includes base salary and may include variable pay, such as cash bonuses and stock options. It also includes a variety of market-competitive benefits that vary by region, business and role, to help employees meet their healthcare, income-protection, financial, retirement and time-off needs.
Executive Pay
The Compensation Committee of Baxter's board of directors, which consists solely of independent, non-employee directors, determines executive officer compensation each year based on an assessment of competitive compensation market data, business conditions and company objectives.
