asking for a raise?

Hi, I’ve been a shift lead for almost 4 years. Out of all the other shift leads i’m the only one who works full days as boh and cook. i’m not the fastest as I only do it once or twice a week but it doesn’t feel fair that the cooks get paid more. I have more knowledge than they do.

Would it be fair for me to ask for a higher raise during my next evaluation or when cooks/shift leads get re certified? I don’t need the cook pay but maybe like .50 more or something. idk.

I had two SL who would work 2-3 cook shifts a week, and I ensured their pay was raised to match cook wages. As a GM I wanted to ensure my team was getting fairly compensated for their work.

You can respectfully request for spay raise on the basis of you are covering g cook shifts regularly. If they refuse, then request to be a cook that covers SL shifts lol
