| How much do you typically receive for your yearly raise?
What is your hourly wage and what does your boss typically give you for a yearly raise? Please give dollar amount or %. My husband and I are owners in a concrete business and we are trying to settle a dispute. To me he gives too large of raises.....typically a$1 a year (our peeps work 8 mo's a yr). I am trying to talk him into cutting back the raises and giving health insurance. We have problems retaining employees due to no benefits. I would like to give some other paid benefits.....like a couple paid holidays,simple IRA, dental, eye, etc. instead of $1 raise. I'm thinking more like 50 cents plus some sort of benefit added each year.My last job I had, I earned about $8 an hour and they tried to give me a 10 cent raise. I threatened to quit and got it to 50 cents. My other jobs were burger joints and such and a quarter was pretty standard.Any input is greatly appreciated.
