*The Commerce Journal>>>United Kingdom Taxes

I just got a pay rise- an extra 拢30 a month - I have been with company for 1yr now - We have also been told th

at our charge our rates will be increased. Is this a normal/average amount to be raised by (i know there is no set amount

i am in my 30s and have a family - and everyday i see the crap on the tv - re credit crunch etc , petrol up etc . I would have thought i would have been given even a 拢100 xtra net a month

How can i tackle this - without my boss getting angry - we are about to move to new offices/ employ a couple more staff. So things cant be that bad!!!

Just to say i work as a bookkeeper for a chartered accountants earning 21k now just risen to 21600 wrk hours normally 8.30- 50 but normally work from 7.50 till 5.00 - sometimes with no lunch - because we have a lot of work

YOUR LUCKY AS NOT EVERYONE GETS A RISE,EMPLOYERS DONT HAVE TO GIVE PAY INCREASES.

1-you've only been there a year-you can't expect a huge raise your first review
2-what does the increase translate to percent-wise? 2%?, 4%? 6%? - my company has paid 3.5-4% annual increases for the regular employees the past few years - that's pretty normal in the US

We usually get between 1.5 and 3 % rise. So as I don't know how much you earn I can't say. As the previous person put not everyone gets one, however you could always say to your boss I was hoping for a little more at this time because I am struggling to cope on my current wage. Maybe he/she could increase your level of responsibility?

u got a good rise there as I only got a 3% rise this year which doesn't cover rate of inflation if you are worry get ur union reb involved !
