PET OF THE WEEK Phil Enough of that stray life for me - I want to become a proper, spoiled house rabbit with a human lap to call my own and a nice large play area I can bounce away the day in. I am a quieter rabbit but I've discovered that I have an inner bun just waiting to pop out and shine. As I get used to my human friends - the bunnyhuggers - I have become more confident, curious and playful. They are teaching me hands contain the best things like treats and pets. So please come in - I want to meet you! Love, Phil

Working Wise Dear Working Wise: I just found out that I am making less than other people in the same position. I like my job and the company I work for—I don’t want to leave, but I also want to be treated fairly. How do I ask for a raise? Signed, Fair Wage Wanted Dear Fair: Everyone wants to be treated fairly. You could ask for a raise based only on the fact that others are making more than you, but you are more likely to be successful if you build a business case. Here are some tips to help you strengthen your case. 1. Build a business case—Raises are given to top performers, not those who “meet expectations”. How have you lowered costs, increased profits, quality, and customer satisfaction or contributed more than other staff? More importantly, how will you contribute to the organization in the future? 2. Determine how much you want—use the Alberta Wage and Salary Survey of more than 400 occupations ( HYPERLINK "http://www.alis.alberta.ca/Wageinfo" www.alis.alberta.ca/Wageinfo), to decide how much you want. Be prepared with alternatives, e.g., a smaller raise, more vacation time, parking, training, flex time, a company car, stock options, a better job title, etc.
Do you have a work-related question? Send your questions to Working Wise, at charles.strachey@gov.ab.ca. Charles Strachey is a manager with Alberta Human Services. This column is provided for general information.
3. Wait for the right time—The best times to ask for a raise are after you have received a great performance review, after you have just completed a large successful project, or at the beginning of a new fiscal year. Many employers have scheduled pay increments and will not consider any pay adjustments outside these schedules. 4. Schedule a meeting—Schedule a meeting with your boss and be sure he understands that you are asking for a raise. Your boss will need to find out if he can fit your raise into the budget and what paperwork is required. If you surprise your boss, you might be told “no” or “we’ll see”. 5. How to ask—Don’t ask for a raise because you need it—ask for it because you deserve it. Bring your research on wages, past accomplishments and future contributions with you. Don’t threaten to quit or say you have another job offer. Keep the conversation friendly, positive and constructive. You are a valuable member of the team with big ideas for the future and your compensation has fallen behind your contributions. 6. Handling “Yes”—Thank your boss and don’t tell your co-workers that you got a raise. Your boss will not welcome a long line of staff at her door asking for a raise for the sole reason that you got one. 7. Handling “No”—If your boss says “No”, continue to be friendly and positive. Tell her that you understand and offer your alternatives. Ask how you can earn a raise in the future and ask for specific achievements so you can bring these up at your next review. Ask if you can meet again in six months for another salary review and keep your performance level high so you can continue to justify your worth. Good luck!
