For example, two long years have already passed without any change in your benefit package but your increasing responsibilities are obvious.
by ur work hard and ask him directly
Don’t approach your boss at the busiest time of the week. Monday mornings (when everyone's warming up for the week) and Friday afternoons (when they're warming down) are out, too. Instead, talk to your manager when they're feeling relaxed – after lunch is a good bet – and ask to schedule a meeting. “Make sure they aren’t rushing off and that nothing else is coming up - an important client visiting or a big new pitch - that might take priority," says Mills. If you think your boss would prefer advance warning, mention that you’d like to discuss salary. If not, it’s fine to be vague and save the details for the meeting.
If your boss is seated on a large and imposing chair, then they’ll be more inclined to behave in an authoritarian way. If possible, take your meeting to a neutral spot in the office and seat your boss somewhere soft and comfortable. A relaxed manager is far more likely to agree to your demands. “If you have a relationship in which you have frank discussions, going off-site to a nearby cafe is fine – especially if you work in an open-plan office," says Mills. "You need to have this discussion where you aren’t disturbed."
In a perfect world, all bosses would evaluate employees based on their talent and commitment. In reality, many are overworked and imperfect judges, prone to making snap decisions about those around them. Make sure your day-to-day manner, demeanour and appearance works in your favour. “There’s no point dressing up on this occasion and looking shabby the rest of the time," says Mills. "The image you portray is an important part of doing your job well and you should always look appropriate." As the saying goes, dress for the job you want, not the job you have.
Don't just dress smartly on the day of your pay discussion - make it a habit
Use clear examples to demonstrate how you’ve gone beyond your basic job description. Highlight a few instances where you’ve taken initiative, improved business or helped support the wider team. Remember that this is a business meeting, and your goal is to convince your boss that you are worth a higher salary.
After you’ve said your piece, give your employer a chance to respond. “Silence is fantastic," says Mills, "As is asking for their advice. Never say that you’re underpaid, and avoid confrontation. Instead, say: ‘I’ve been thinking about my responsibilities and how they might be reflected in my pay. What do you think?’ That open question gives them a chance to answer."
“It’s in both of your interests that you keep your employer on board,” says Mills. “Reaffirm your commitment to the job and show that you’re up for challenges. People often get very defensive or aggressive, and the boss responds to that tone of voice. The more relaxed you are, the more relaxed your boss will be.”
A snivelling employee is as attractive as a weeping ex-boyfriend – and just as unlikely to achieve a positive result. Pleading about your struggle to buy a home is a major turn-off, so leave your financial woes out of the conversation. And no matter how your boss behaves, don't threaten to resign if you don’t get your way. Even if you’re overworked and bullied, the decision to switch companies should be made quietly and discreetly – not during a tantrum.
If the answer’s no, explore other ways to boost your income and change your work habits. Ask if you could work from home one day a week – which would save 20 per cent of your travel costs. “With the best will in the world, employers may not be able to give you additional pay, but they could offer other things – such as flexibility,” says Mills. “If you’re asking for a pay rise because of your long hours, perhaps they could give you a more reasonable schedule instead.”
Make sure that whatever you agree is put in writing. If your boss says they don’t have the budget for a pay increase at the moment, then ask them when they expect that situation to change and make a note in an email. “Send them a memo saying: ‘It was really interesting to hear your thoughts – you suggested that I should ask again about salary in six months time, and that’s really helpful.' Then you’ve got a paper trail,” says Mills. If you do get a pay rise later, ask your boss if they can backdate your increase; they may refuse, but there’s always a chance they’ll bump your pay higher to compensate.
If your boss decides not to increase your salary, be gracious and ask for feedback. What should you be doing differently, and how can you improve your performance in the coming months? Approach your meeting as a chance to learn and change your work prospects so that, even if you lose this battle, you end up winning the war.
And if that doesn’t make you feel better, just remember – the Prime Minister thinks you’re worth it.
Whenever He/She is free you approach him a simple manner with smile and try to explore your achievements that you gained in the company during your span. At the end of colourful discussion, request him that you are eligible for an increment due to our outstanding performance.
You will need to prepare your positive points achieved during the past months to provide in a polite manner to your manager including your interest that you will do your best to reach the best level of performance.
Before asking your boss or your manager for possible raise. Please consider few of this checklists: first check your KPI's for the last two years if you are consistently and exceptionally hitting your targets. Second, prepare your accomplishment reports. Third, benchmark your position and the current salary of your post, inflation rates and cost of living assessments and spending. Then, set a meeting or appointment to your boss to discuss this matter. Usually, boss will hear your justification and evaluates your plea and demand if reasonable and acceptable.
