Once again, I come to the wise ones on a question on pay raises. This year, we have decided to do them based on percentages bases on cost of living. My question isn't really meant to be how everyone does it, etc., but I will take that.
My question is this. We have two employees getting 3% raises. The issue is that they also get health insurance paid for by the company, while they pay a small amount each month. This gives them a $4,000 bonus each year even after their contributions.
So, the question is how would you figure that in to their raises or percentages?
The other question is one MA was set to get a certain raise but is also likely to get our standard $1.00 per hour raise for sitting for and passing her MA boards. I contend that this should have nothing to do with her regular raise. My office manager thinks it should lower her raise or wipe it out altogether. Oh, and we have less than 24 hours to figure this out. Tick, tock.
