I have never, in my entire career asked for a raise. So I'm a little nervous.
My job has gone through a big overhaul, and now we have all sorts of new supervisory positions, that, like I've complained about before, they say I'm not qualified for, despite 8 years experience, because I do not have a 4 year degree. So I remain a case manager. It's fine. I'm good at my job, I like my job.
But now, all sorts of new things are being delegated to me (and not the other case managers). I've just been informed that I will have to take on a new, time consuming, on going task. for as long as I've worked here, this task has always been performed by a supervisor. Now I have to go to training and take on this task, in addition to my normal duties.
I've also been informed that I will have to begin teaching a class once a week to clients. there is another 3 hours out of my week gone.
Additionally, we have this big involved correctional component program that we do with our clients. Each case manager has to create a lesson plan sort of thing, go over it with our clients, review their assignments, etc. I'm a coach for this. Which means I oversee a couple of case managers plans, review them, grade them and then discuss the results to make sure they are satisfying the requirements and to help them improve.
There are 6 coaches total. I am the only coach who is not a supervisor. Right now, coaching takes up several hours every two weeks.
I am currently training two new case managers, who come to me for everything (this is not official, just a time suck) I am also training one of the new supervisors how to do a specific program, even though I was deemed not qualified to take that position (again, not official, just a time suck, and a bit of resentment)
This is all in addition to meeting with my own 21 clients aweek, doing intakes, assessments, dealing with problems, creating those lesson plans and all of my other normal duties. And one week of being on call every couple of months, that I do not get paid for.
So I want to go to the HR manager who actually appears to like me, and lay it out that I am being asked to take on new responsibilities that are traditionally given to those above my pay grade, and I would like to discuss a pay raise for the new duties that I'm assigned to, in addition to my yearly evaluation raise that is coming up. It is also worth noting to you guys at least, that the new case managers are being hired at wage that is 1 dollar more than when I started, but the experienced case managers pay did not increase.
I'm really nervous and I don't want to come off as not willing to take on tasks, but I do think I should be compensated for additional, supervisory tasks. thoughts?
