In response to an anonymous inquiry, those not falling within the new pay brackets are advised to...
1) Realise that Rome as not built in a day..
2) Be realistic in what you do... (No ammount of square pins will fit into every hole) I have tried to be broad, and tried to be flexible... and there will be lots of cases where you might feel you are worth more.
3) Discuss it with your Line Manager. (after all the posts that will be most affected are the 'middle' ground posts... so you should already have a structrue in place.
4) Be aware that your pay can't go over what the boss is getting
(and sometimes you might just be shocked at what the boss takes home)
5) Understand the IFA system of responsibility - PIFA AIFA and MIFA. If you are doing a job which falls into these catagories then you should be being paid the minimum for that category (especially if they are an RAO)
MIFA
1 Full responsibility for all stages of projects or equivalent
2 Substantial written reports or equivalent essential
AIFA
1 Delegated responsibility for projects or equivalent
2 Written reports or equivalent usually required
PIFA
1 Responsibility for data collection and basic organisation
2 Written reports not expected
3 Must have fulfilled appropriate time requirement, ie a minimum of 6 months
Therefore based on the min. possible 3% rise..
a PIFA is £14,300
a AIFA is £16,621
a MIFA is £21,522
BAJR is not able to enforce or demand anything... but it can apply pressure for change.
Finally... if you feel you are hard done by and can't see any other way out... let me know... it will be in confidence and your identity is safe.
Let me know the job description (you should have one ) and your pay + any additional details. I will look at it and give advice.
This is going to be hard... so don't expect that just because I have posted this that all employers will suddenly raise their wages (Hey .. some don't have to!) But together we can work it out ! That means Employers, Employees, Self Employed and Contract Workers.
"No job worth doing was ever done on time or under budget.."
