§ 54-17-03 — Chairman and attorney - Executive director - Employees - Compensation - Bonds

Bonds.
The governor is the chairman of the industrial commission, and its attorney is the attorney
general. The commission shall appoint an executive director and may employ other subordinate
officers, employees, and agents, on such terms as the commission determines proper. The
commission may require suitable bonds of its executive director or other subordinate officers,
employees, or agents. The commission shall fix the amount of the compensation of the
commission's executive director, officers, employees, and agents. The compensation, together
with other expenditures for operation and maintenance of the general business of the
commission, must remain within the appropriation available in each year for such purpose. The
commission may set the compensation, within the limits of legislative appropriation, for
members of a board, committee, or council that advises the commission. Notwithstanding any
other provision of law, the compensation for any board, committee, or council member may
include reimbursement for expenses, a salary, a per diem, or a combination of the three, as set
by the commission.
