Asked in CA May 18, 2022 ,  0 answers Visitors: 2
Hello, i work for a non profit and was hired to be a development admin, couple years later i asked for a pay increase. they gave me one. Months later our president decided he needed an executive assistant and offered me the position which included more responsibility. I made a mistake by assuming i would get a pay increase, but did not. now, one year later not only am i an executive assistant but my responsibilities have now increased. I'm finally getting a very small pay increase as a "yearly review" for a position i have been in over a year. is this legal? My pay did not increase with my new position, should i be compensated for the year i worked with new responsibilities?

You can't just assume you'll get a pay increase. The employer could assign you to a new position and increase your pay, decrease your pay, or leave it the same. The only restrictions are that (a) the employer can't decrease your pay rate for time you've already worked, nor (b) in violation of a contract, either collective-bargained or individual.
