Her salary should logically be more than what Public Relations Department pays normally to an Administrative Assistant. Such changes would increase the morale of the staff members and they would be more inclined to working harder and more efficiently. This in turn would only benefit this organization as the output of work would be at its peak. Hence new titles with revised job descriptions and increased salary for those who deserve it should only be advantageous to the company and should be considered and given the utmost priority.
PROCEDURE
Through a study of the qualifications and the workload that staff members are coping with after the added responsibilities, I have formulated new titles and salary packages for those who deserve the most. The allocated budget was $33,000 and this budget has been used efficiently and in the most appropriate way. Jonathan Moore is a Copy Writer II with a salary of $62,555 and although due to the comparison of qualifications and order of seniority, Sarah Goldstein who is also hired as a Copy Writer II is being paid more. However with the increased responsibilities on Jonathan Moore, as he also conducts other accounting duties, his salary should be increased to the same as Sarah Goldstein. However his title would remain the same. Rhoda Porter was hired recently and she is not handling any excess workload hence her status would remain the same and so would her salary. We have with us Tina Simpson who is currently posted as an Administrative Assistant I (grade 41). Her new added responsibilities include the multi-million dollar budget. Her current salary is $42,690 which was being paid to her with her former described...
I find it appropriate to change her title from Administrative Assistant I to an Account Manager I and increase her salary to $48,000. This change is to be made in view of her new job responsibilities. Michael Shaw is hired as a Receptionist/Secretary and is currently being paid an amount of $33,475 only. His new job responsibilities include helping out with the administrative works in light of which he should be given the title of Administrative Assistant I and his salary should be increased to $37,975. The rest of the staff members would continue with their previous titles and salary packages. Such change of titles and increase in salaries would make the staff feel as if the organization really cares for the extra work that they put in thus increasing their morale. This way the organization would be able to cash the best of efforts that the staff can make.
REQUEST FOR APPROVAL
The Board of Directors are requested to look into this matter and bring about the changes that I have proposed to ensure optimal performance by the employees which would in turn be beneficial for the organization. For this proposal I ask for funding to be made from the salary savings of this organization. It is in my knowledge that the total salary savings would allow the use of a total of $33,000. However I have not used the entire amount and only a fraction of it. I would also like to point out that with the increased efforts by everyone, increasing their salaries would cost the organization lesser as compared to if they were to hire two more people. Considering the benefits that this change would bring about to the organization, I would like to ask…
