I have worked for the same employer for almost six years now and have only recieved a dollar and a quarter rai Why is this question in law and legal? You are not entitled to any kind of raise, no matter how long you have worked there, unless it's contractually stipulated. Now, if you've been a good worker, you can represent to your boss how valuable you've been, and that you feel you deserve to be paid more. Quietly find out what other workers in your same position/experience make. Request a raise politely, don't make threats of going somewhere else, etc. If you don't get a raise and need the money, start shopping around. Just don't do anything to damage your atmosphere at your current job. Have you been doing the same job during the last 6 years? What have you done to upgrade your skills for a better job where you are or at another company? So, if this is not acceptable for you, why do you stay? Dude...why not look at other jobs out there and see what they are paying for your job description? You could also try asking for a raise. I just got a new job because I was underpaid and there were problems at my former job. I started at thousands more a year and my next pay review is in 90 days. I love my new job. If your employer isn't going to give you another raise anytime soon, and you aren't making enough, go out there and find something else. i just found out that my employer doesnt give raises much. someone I work with has worked there for 6 years and hasnt got a raise yet, I am looking for a new job! |
