What to say to management to raise salaries

Every third working person, dissatisfied with his salary, does not dare to ask for an increase. If you have been working in one place for more than 2 years and you have never been raised, you should at least check how much they pay people who have the same qualifications as you. How to do it? Subscribe to Superjob vacancies based on your requirements and qualifications expected for a job position (this way you will receive the latest offers from employers every day and quickly understand how much you are worth).

However, working well and being able to profitably “sell” your work, including to your current employer, are two different things. If you are sure that you are working well and are getting little, you need to work on the arguments. Where to get them? Leave a request for the analysis of your resume marked “For promotion within the company” - and you will receive a list of arguments and advice on further career planning from our experts. And yes: we have it absolutely free.

What to say
If you get advice, all the arguments are in your hands. If not, keep in mind that the following can be considered strong arguments:

1. Significantly increased load.
2. Qualifications have grown significantly.
3. You have brought tangible tangible benefits to the company. This benefit can be proved and expressed in numbers (better - in rubles). If you directly affect the profit of your company, then it will be easy for you to give such numbers. If there are no direct numbers, look for indirect ones. Think!

What can not be said
“I have a mortgage”, “My colleague is paid more”, “I studied for so many years”, “I have problems”, “I will quit from you” - there should not be such arguments. Why? You probably already guess: there are no irreplaceable ones, no one has problems, there isn’t much money, and indeed the goal of any commercial enterprise is profit. It's better to talk about her. Are you afraid to talk? Write a letter.

What to do if not raised
Refused? Draw conclusions and put your resume openly. Or keep it closed, but send it to suitable vacancies (you already subscribed to them when you studied your cost).

What to do if upgraded
Do not unsubscribe from subscribing to vacancies - continue to monitor the labor market. This will not only allow you to keep abreast of your value, but also will not let miss new requirements of employers. If you go in time to learn and acquire “fashionable” skills, next time talking with the employer about the increase will be much easier!

1. Dismissal is not a tragedy, but your chance to change your life for the better Whatever the reasons for dismissal, keep calm and only calm! Yes, losing your job is a way out of your comfort zone, but then your fate is in your hands again. Consider the situation as a chance to change your life for the better, and not as a tragedy.

How to increase your value in the labor market

It is known that each product has its own price. An employee in the labor market is no exception. A monthly salary is not only a remuneration for labor, but also a kind of qualification assessment.
