Answer 3

if youre not happy,put your complaint in writing to your boss - they will then treat it as a grievance and you can discuss the issue

Answer 4

ive been with my company for 3 years and i've never had an increase in wages :(

Answer 5

It's actually 2%. 15p is 2.07% of £7.25. So it's not too bad at all. My last rise was 3% and I thought that was pretty good in fairness!

Answer 6

If you think a rise from £7.25 to £7.40 is just 0.9% then you don't deserve any rise at all!
