Sample Salary Raise Asking Letter 1 (Written by an individual employee) John Moore Date: 13th October, 2011 Michael Allen Sub: Request for Salary Raise Dear Allen, It has been a great experience working with the company under your leadership for 3 years now. I have been consistently performing my duties and responsibilities satisfactorily. I have even been nominated many times for Performance Awards. I would like to bring it to your notice that despite all the efforts and achievements, I have been working on the same salary for all these years. So, after lots of thought and in anticipation, I am writing this letter to put forward my request for salary revision, and appropriate hike. I was told at the time of joining too that the organization has a policy, under which the first salary revision has to be done after completion of three years with the organization, and thereafter on annual basis. I would like to remind you that I have completed my 3 years last month, and so the needful may be done for the salary negotiations. I would appreciate if given an opportunity to meet you in person and discuss the salary hike in detail. Thanking you once again for the time given, and the opportunity to be a part of your team. Regards, (Signature) Cc: HR Manager Salary Raise Asking Letter Sample 2 (Written by a Team or Department or group of employees) Simon Wilson 13th October, 2011 Joel Lewis Dear Lewis, I am writing this letter to inform you and put forward the employees request for a salary revision. In the monthly meeting of our Utility Services department, we had the issue of salary revision put forward by some employees. After detailed consideration and insight in to the matter, I have decided to forward their request to the concerned management people, so that a suitable pay scale could be redrafted. I would like to bring to your notice that, since the inception of the company, there was no review of the salary done for our department, considering the logistic constraints, and then existing job responsibilities. But, since now a new wing has been added, the duties and responsibilities of the employees have increased, and so has the quantum of work to be performed. Acknowledging their concerns, and to resolve their issues, I would like you to consider their request, which I personally feel is justifiable. I would appreciate if we can discuss the matter together in person, and design a suitable revised pay scale chart, with substantial proportional salary raise. Thanking you in anticipation of a prompt reply. Regards, (Signature) From the above given samples of salary raise asking letter, you will note that it can be written for both, on an individual and a group or team basis. Depending upon your requirement, you may opt to refer to any one, and make appropriate changes suiting to your requirements. We hope you find the information useful.
