Hi there
About four years ago I was moved onto a new project with more repsonisbility and I wrote out a job description for the work. I asked for my new role to be regarded which it was and they then told me that my role could not be regraded as it was of a similar nature to my previous post. On the encouragement of a colleague about a year ago based on the work I had done she suggested that I should ask the role to be regraded again.
I was able to provide a more detailed job description because I had been doing the work and also because additional responsibilities came up that I was not aware of when I started. Subsequently my role was regraded. I then asked HR if my salary could be back dated to when I put in my first regrading request. They came back and said no. I am on a salary scale which goes up a point every year so I have lost quite a lot of money if I had been regraded originally. Is there anything I can do here? I feel it is unfair as I have been doing the same job but they only decided to regrade me when I could provide evidence of my role in more detail.
many thanks for any advice.
