How many AB'ers get a pay rise each year and by what percentage?

[dot.hawkes]

I get 3 pay rises a year, two are based on performance and results and one is the cost of living October rise that i think everyone gets don't they? percentage wise I am not sure what it is as it is usually a round figure increase.

That's good. I'd like three pay rises a year. I recall (back in the 80's) feeling hard done by if i got 6%. Now, I'm lucky to get 2.5%. Hubby doesn't get one every year so my �30.00 pay rise is swallowed up (and more) by the ever increasing price of utilities! Sorry.......in a moaning mood !!!

i tend to get set amout �1000...which obviously is a reducing % each year...but its ok coz i steel lots of stationery from them which I sell on Ebay

Wow Dot! I'd like 3 pay rises a year. We are due a pay rise every July, however we don't get this until the unions have agreed. We then get it back-dated in November/December.

some of the salary increases I have had are based on amendmends to the whole salary package which involves commission threshholds and bonus schemes and these are adjusted and increased based on length of service as well as profit and stock management.

I get a rise each year depending on performance and output.
They have mainly been around the 3% mark.
Not enough!

I can't remember the last time we had more than a 2% pay rise. It was around 7 years ago. My bills go up, my council tax goes up, prices in shops go up, etc etc,and my pay rise just about meets it!

I work for myself and I put my prices up every April, usually about 5%.
