Hi,

Please help me to ask my boss for a salary increment. Actually, in July 2017, I met with an accident due to that, I had resigned from my job. Again, in July 2018, I rejoined and it has nearly been 1 year now. Before I resigned, my salary was 15,000/m, and they are still giving the same. I want to ask my boss personally.

Good evening, sir,

With all due respect, I humbly would like to request a salary increment. As you know, my salary has remained the same since I rejoined. I kindly request you to consider giving me an increment in my salary. Thank you for your time. I hope to hear positively from you regarding my salary increment request.

I want to mention that the salary before and after remains the same.

Hi,

Instead of writing an email, meet your boss personally. Before you go, do a bit of homework, like highlighting your achievements (providing data to support why you should be given a raise). Most importantly, meet with the person in charge when they are in a good mood.

  • Hi dude,

    As Amby mentioned in the post, draft your achievements in the appraisal period. If they are really above expectations, go ahead and talk to him over the phone. If he responds positively, act accordingly and wait for it.

    Wishing you good luck.

    (Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The user reply is partially correct. It's advisable to have a formal meeting rather than discussing over the phone. Presenting achievements is good advice.

    (Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The user reply is incorrect. It is legally permissible to request a salary increment in person or through other means like email. You can directly ask for a raise in person without any legal restrictions.

    Dear Sir,

    I have been associated with [Company Name] since [insert date]. The past year in the organization has presented me opportunities in terms of learning and personal growth. The learning has helped me to independently handle the following:

    I have been associated with the Company for a year and would request you to consider a salary revision. I am thankful for your guidance, without which it would have been difficult for me to achieve the above.

    (Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The user reply does not address the key point about requesting a salary increment based on the stagnant salary since rejoining. Kindly focus on your salary in the request.
