Facing More Responsibility at Work for The Same Pay? Here’s How to Respond

Inflation and the rising cost of living literally leave less money in our pockets. But what about your job? Does the compensation still feel fair? If you’ve been dealing with a bump in responsibilities, but no equivalent increase in compensation, this post advises you on what to do.

Can My Employer Give Me More Responsibility Without More Pay?

Yes, legally your employer can increase your range of responsibilities without increasing your compensation. But it’s not an appropriate thing to do. Employees should be fairly compensated for extra responsibilities since they usually require more effort and skill to do. This is usually called “horizontal career growth” and it includes a salary bump.

Last year, employers increased salaries for executives, management, professional, and support staff by 3% on average. That’s after an average 2.7% increase in 2021.

However, more responsibilities may not always lead to higher pay. For example, you may not get an immediate salary increase if you took extra responsibilities:

Temporarily to cover for another person
As part of your performance improvement plan (PIB)

In general, everyone’s situation is different.…
