How long can you stay at the same paid hourly rate?
|
I started my seasonal job in May of '06, left early for school, and the facility closes in November (weather pending - it's a kart race track). I came back to work this May again after I got out of school. I was expecting the annual dollar raise I kept hearing about, but they gave me a hard time about it - because I didn't work a "full year."
I was wondering how long an employer can keep you at the same paid hourly rate until they have to increase it (by any amount - whether it's $.10, $.25, or $1 raise).

Indefinately, unless regulated (ala minimum wage increase). Companies aren't obligated to provide wage increases. |

Until they decide you are worth more of the business is doing well enough they want to pass it on. You are NEVER entitled to a raise. |

They can pay you that as long as you'll work for them. |

First of all, you were not entitled to the raise because you did not work the full year like your supposed to in order to get the raise. If you knew of someone else who worked there and was in the same situation as you are and they gave them a raise after not working the full year, I would bring it up to them. If not, too bad.
They don't have to increase your hourly rate. The only way that they have to is if the State minimum wage goes up or if the Federal minimum wage goes up. I know of people who worked at a company for maybe 5 years and didn't see a pay increase and then the pay increase was only $.25. |

Whenever they want. If you were not there for a year, and after the 12 month mark is when they gave the raise, then you are not entitled to a raise. |
