Well how can they be hard working and still have low performance. But yeah they too deserve a pay increase. Especially with the way everything is turning out to be. Expensive. |

Yes, but only enough to keep up with inflation and reflect their longevity with the company. In the end, its all about results, not how hard you work. If athletes got paid based on how hard they work, everyone would get paid roughly the same as Tiger Woods or Michael Jordan. In the end, its the results that count and I would reward high performance at least twice as much. |

I can't believe so many of you people think "hard working" and "low performance" are mutually exclusive. Someone can work very hard but just not be very GOOD at what they're doing, consequently their performance is low. You all remember the kid in school who tried really hard but could never manage better than C's, right? It's the same thing.
Anyway, if the employee's performance is good enough so that you want to keep him, and he will leave unless you give him a raise, then give him enough of a raise to make him stay, assuming his work is worth that level of pay to you. Otherwise don't give him any raise, and expect him to quit. Higher performing workers should receive raises commensurate with THEIR performance, on the same principle. |

Yes, they should get cost of living increase. But If your company does not believe in Cost of living increase they need to say "Your not getting an increase in pay because of your performance". Thus your demoted. There are a few exceptions like contracts etc. But If you get no increase in relation to inflation your losing money each year. |

A hardworking employee or shall I say a "busy" employee is not equated with good performance. As we say in the corporate world, we never equate busyness with productivity and it is productivity (results) which are measured, no matter what the processes are. Pay increase? In most companies now, increases are always equated with productivity. Blessings. |

hardworking does not equal low performance so no they should not. hardworking employees would by definition be high performers |
|

that's a contradiction. If they're hard working, how can they have low performance? |

how can you be hard working and have low performance? It's an oxymoron. |

Unless they are paid by piece work, everyone should receive the same pay. |
