Directors are paid an annual stipend plus an additional fee for participation in Board committees as per the RWAV Director Remuneration Policy.

The Board meets six times a year with some meetings held in person and others via MS Teams. Directors are also expected to contribute to the work of Board Committees, and to participate in strategic planning sessions.
