A compensation and human capital committee is a board-level group that sets and oversees executive pay, employee incentive plans, hiring and retention strategies, succession planning, and workplace policies. Think of it as the company’s talent and pay steering team — it shapes who gets hired or promoted, how employees are rewarded, and how workforce risks are managed. Investors care because those choices drive labor costs, company performance, leadership stability and reputation, all of which affect long-term value.
