Is there a law that an employer is require to rise the salary of the employees in a certain  time?

No - Sorry - An employer can raise a salary or lower it at their choice.\n\nThere are a lot of laws about making sure you are not discriminated against, but that just means everyone is treated in the same way. Best way to get a raise is tomake sure your boss appreciates what you do and that it contributes to the business

The BK is right.  Under Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution, "The President, shall, at stated times receive for his services, a compensation, which shall neither be increased nor diminished during the period for which he shall have been elected ..."\n\nClinton signed legislation in 1999 to double the salary to 400k.  But under that Article, it wouldn't take effect until the next term or Bush's 1st year.  Congress is the only one that can raise salaries.

It depends on how long you have been there, if you have been there at least 6 months to 1 year, you definitely should ask for a raise if your work has increased. Just sit down with your boss and explain to him/her why you think you deserve the raise and point out any good points about yourself ("I am always on time" or "I have not missed many days of work") Be firm and unapologetic, yet friendly and respectful.

Generally, no. BUT, it wil ldepend on your company.\n\nIf there is a corporate pay scale, then they may adjust all scales accordingly, but not $1.70 worth. \n\nFor example, if the starting pay where you are is 5.15 and the second level is $8.00 and they raise the starting pay to 6.85, the second level may adjust to start at 9.00. \n\nit's hard to say. \n\nBut if your company does not employ minimum wage workers, then any substantial raise is HIGHLY unlikely.

I would not ask for a raise. I would however thank them for recognising the importance of my contribution to this company and for offering you permanent employment. After that I would inform them of my salary need and let them decide if they are going to pony up the duckets. They will respect you more because they will see that you have a better grasp on your needs. Good job.

Some companies will provide "comp time" if you work extra hours in advance.  Other that that, you would have to negotiate for more time.

No. It is not right. It has been a long time since I have looked at the laws and they might have varied a little in that time. But I do know it used to be anything over five hours you had to have a half hour. Anything over seven hours you are entitled to another half hour.\n\nI will look up and see if I can find recent laws. \nFight your boss and if they will not change then take it to the BBB or the county.

If you are paid hourly, you have a good argument against your employer, however, it could take a long while to get compensation.  On the other hand, if you are payed a salary, your company can bypass the law.  Also, if you are salaried, you may want to read the fine print in your hire paperwork.  It can provide alot of useful information on specific guidlines for your company. In addition, you must consider that it is the employee's choice to read the E-mail from home!

they are trying to get minimum wage changed, but it is by state.  a lot of states are trying to raise minimum wage to $6 (right now, in my state, it's $5.15).  your state has to pass the bill before it will go up, though.

One would want an instant increase on the paycheck but thats not how it works. Continuing increase of productivity though, in the long-term will have as a result an increase of responsibilities from your employer (has more trust in you), and after that, a raise and maybe a promotion.

You will have to contact human resources and payroll dept.  Depending on the company, I am sure there is a handbook somewhere that has all the rules and regulations(most of it is in small print).  Good luck!

If you are an "at will" employee they can do what they wish as long as it is not retroactive (paying you that wage for work you have already performed.)

That may be unique to California (their kinda weird out there compared to the rest of the country any how) Federal wage and hour laws require (in most cases) that time and one half be payed for any more than 8 hours in any one day and over 40 hours in any week. Their are no requirements for an employer to pay double time, triple time etc. unless it is a part of some kind of contract (union or other wise) so you will have to check with your state's wage and hour board.

When the government sets a value for something, rather than the free market, there will be consequences. When you raise the minimum wage, you do two things. One, you make the cost of unskilled labor rise, sometimes higher than the actual value of the labor. Two, you devalue the people who have proven that they are worth more.\n\nIf I am paying a person $ 6.00 per hour, that is what he is worth to me. If he can find a job paying more, he is free to do so with my blessing! \n\nLook at this situation, for an example:\n\nI have two workers. One I hired last month, and am paying $6.00 per hour. He is still learning the job, and I have to spend time training him! The other worker has been with me for a year, and is making $7.00 per hour. They both do the type of work, but the second worker is more valuable to me, because he is trained!\n\nIf the minimum wage is raised to $ 7.25 per hour, I have to make a business decision. I will have to raise the  pay of both employees to $7.25. The new guy is not woth that to me, so he is going to be laid off. My other worker will be given the raise, but he will actually be going backwards in reality. He had worked his way up to a higher pay rate, but now is back to minimum. Prices will go up, but his real pay  (in relation to the cost of living) will go down.\n\nIf a $7.25 minimum wage is good, why not raise it more. Why not $17.25? Why not $172.50?

no, unless the hours worked go over 40 hours.\nmost good companies though will pay double time for hours worked on a holiday. wage laws are for the most part set up by the federal government.

that is a supervisor that gets paid by the hour instead of a set salary.\n\nWhat they do depends on the company.

I appreciate when my employees are up front with me.  If they have been working hard and deserve a raise, I don't hesitate.  On the other hand, if I have an employee who doesn't show up on time and leaves early, no chance.\n\nSo if you feel like you deserve a raise, be confident when asking and you will be rewarded.
