If there is no explaination, reasonable enough (you ought to look at yourself and your work thru the eyes of your employer), try to get a new job.\n\nFirst of all you must have an employment contract or an understanding therein your terms of employment will be mentioned.\n\nGo through them and ensure that you honestly evaluate each of your duties and understand clearly the requirement.\n\nIn case you conclude that you have done your bit truthfully, then look into the matter of raises and rewards as per your employment policy. In case that document has clear indication of how the reward and increment will follow and you come to know that you are not due yet then stay calm and wait your turn.\n\nIf all is ok on your side and yet you feel that there is no definite answer as to why you have not received a raise while everyone else has, file redressal and get an audience with the management. Get your point across and listen to what they have to say.\n\nIf all else fails, like I mentioned in the begining, you should already have an option or two ready to fly to.

temps don't typically get raises, but if you would, it should be based on your performance or company % rates. The company I work for is usually 15% of your pay.

Taxpayers pay for thier salary increase, and it needs to stop since the average worker doesnt get rises like goverment workers do???

Well the best thing to do is keep a diary of the extra work you have done.  When your diary satisfies you, show him it and ask for a raise.  Tell him, I am able to do two jobs at once and after working hard for this company I am hoping to get a raise.  Because if you ask for less responsibility, they might disrespect you.  But you sound like your being pushed over.  So keep the diary and then hand it to him/her.

sounds like you are very well spoken and you have your "ducks in a row".\ni would present your case to your supervisor and ask why you are compensated signifcantly less than the people that you are training.\nare you getting compensated for training??  often times, in my experience, trainers usually received more money for training or some other type of compensation or "perk" for the extra work.\nit's very tricky because you don't want to "rock the boat", however, long term employees get the "short end of the stick" sometimes when it comes to wages b/c the employer forgets about their wages and does not perform a wage "wrap" when inflation raises wages in the entry workforce.\ni have also known management employees fight the company b/c they have dedicated many years to the company and someone with a degree comes in and in 2 years they are making the same or more than they are....after many more years of experience.\nthis often leads to management turnover in companies...which i wish they would realize.\n\ni would present your case to your immediate supervisor (or who ever has influence over your salary) and inquire about the possibilty of a raise due to the wages of the newcomers and the fact that you are training them.\nbe prepared for them to tell you that obtaining a degree will help you get there....try to compromise on this.  see if they will increase your wage based on credits earned.  this way you can take one or two classes a semester and start to earn more after 1 semester.  also, get in writing exactly what you agree upon.\n\ni experienced this at the last company i worked for....a supervisor was being deterred from promotion because of his education.  first, he was told that any degree would help.  so, he got his associate's.  then, they said he'd need his bachelor's.  well, he never got anything in writing so he had to deal with the "run around" he was getting from upper management and HR.\n\ni wish you luck, but please have a back up plan in mind in case they tell you "tough luck".\nstart looking into other opportunities at other companies. perhaps, you could find a better salary somewhere else.\n\ntake care.\n\nP.S.\nkeep any negotiations to yourself.  i've seen people blab about their agreements with the company and b/c of it the company renegged or retaliated in some way.

Stop acting like God's gift and they'll start paying more attention to you.\n\nA wise old boss once told me, "When it's everybody else, it ain't everybody else."

Depends on several factors.  One, are you making the same or less as your permement counterparts with the same amount of seniority (i.e. new).\n\nTwo, did they provide you with a comprehensive benefits package?  If so, include that into your salary as a raise.\n\nIf you make less then your equals, I would question it.

Give them positive incentives.  If they meet their work goals they get their basic salary.  If they exceed them they get a bonus.  Encourage the positive more than discouraging the negative.

It really depends on your company's policy.  I asked a similar question to HR after my company was taken over.  She said the old company wouldn't do anything, but the new one might pursue.  The company might take your last paycheck to offset the dollar amount they have "lost."

Usually, that's a bit too personal.  Just accept what you make , do a great job, and get a raise as you work more at the company.

The boss probably feels you get paid less because you work less.  Try working as hard and as effectively as you can.  Keep written records of your accomplishments.  It's best to keep a diary.  After 6-12 months, you'll have two new options.  You can tell your boss why you deserve higher pay, or you can go look for another job, and have documented reasons why the new employer should hire you and pay you what you're worth.  Use the same strategy in your new job, and there's no limit to how far your career can progress!

Interesting topic.  Who is going to pay for the increase?

If you can afford to pay a little extra with each paycheck you could ask them to take more out.  Plus any bonuses you get could go towards it...  and as previous post said, your income tax check.

If it were me I would arrange a meeting with my boss to find out why I am not being paid equally with others in my office.  But do it unemotionally.  That's important.  If you don't get a satisfactory answer then get your resume out there.  Don't threaten to leave your present job.  I'm sure you still want that income until you find something else.  Good luck!

Typical raises tend to be between 3-7%. It's best to be prepared to itemize your accomplishments to your employer. You were hired at one rate to fill a position. If you've gone above and beyond, ask for what you deserve. Ask a bit higher than what you expect and be prepared for negotiations.

I would schedule a meeting with your immediate supervisor.  Bring accomplishments, goals you have met, the last raise you recieved, if you do more than just your job, and any other notes you may have to the meeting.  Most people ask for a raise about once a year.
