I just noticed after working two years for the company they started me on basic salary even though I had 4 years work related experiences. Upon my hiring I called HR to clarify if I need to bring any additional form they said nothing just sign the offer letter.
I was not familiar what is the base salary so I assumed they acknoledged that from my resume I had 4 years of experince. However I saw recently when i was looking ne jobs they started me at lowest rate. Do I have the right to claim to retropayback me for 2 years.?
Thank you for your question. Your right to be paid a salary will be whatever is stated in your employment agreement. If your employment agreement (your offer letter) stated that you were to be making the rate that you were actually paid, then it will be very difficult to argue that you are owed more, unless you have another agreement stating otherwise.
That said, it is difficult to answer your question without more details, and specifically without seeing your offer letter. It would likely be easiest to discuss this in further detail over a consultation, if you are interested. If you would like to book a consultation with us, please contact us at the number below.
