I am working in a chemical plant for 6 years and they are not upgrading me all other colleagues are promoted but i am not because i dont go to directors directly I just asked every thing to my HR manager I have now resigned and they are asking to raise salary should i accept the raise in salary without improvement in designation?
I actually received a 5.5% pay cut. I’ve been hashing this out with HR for a year and half and all they keep telling me is that the VP would never have approved the 7% raise. Was this not an implied contract? Do I have any legal action I can take? I’m in management and a salaried employee, do the rules not apply to us?
I worked for the same 6000+ employee public company for six years. I worked for the corporate office, yet worked at-home in a different state. At the end of every year, I had to complete a self-appraisal and sign an employee appraisal with my performance rating. That appraisal was then reviewed and a raise percentage was calculated. I never got to see the raise percentage.
I received a substantial raise every year from my company based on my performance. In January 2008, I was supposed to receive a raise for my above-average 3.6 performance rating. My raises were always given to me late, normally in November or December (11 to 12 months late). The raise was distributed to me retroactively from the date of Jan 1.
In November 2008, I was included in a massive company-wide layoff. After the layoff, I inquired with my Director and CIO about my raise. I was told that there was no money for this raise since the company was having financial problems. I explained my understanding, however this raise was due to me prior to these financial hardships due to the failing economy.
I contacted Human Resources and they have been looking into the raise. They have told me that my issue is under review with Executive Management and there is no update currently. This has been going on for over a month now… and my raise is 13 months late now.
Do I have any recourse to attempt to obtain the money owed to me?
Thanks.
