I doubt I could have offered you more than the State Board of Accounts. I wouldn't be surprise if you got more or if we got about the same. They offered me $72,0000 which is a $9,000 increase from what I am making now. That to me was worth it. I know the crazy thing is that Jason and Kim makes more than that; however, it doesn't matter. Once I have the director role it will be a whole lot easier to get the director role at a another organization with higher salary (Ball State/Ivy Tech, or etc.). They are giving me the money for four employees although that could change if I need more next year. They budgeted 2 Senior Auditors (45-55K) and 2 Internal Auditors (35-45K). I told them I could get Internal Auditors for the low 40K. I know getting the seniors for that salary will be somewhat challenging. I figure if I cant get a good one I could either hire a audit manager role in the 65K range and hire an audit assistant or something.

I explained to the boss that I was looking for a 10% increase from my current salary of $90,000. The “Boss” paused (phone silence), and then made an offer of $95,000 to include an annual bonus of 5% if my annual goals were accomplished, which she said would meet my annual 10% increase request. I explained to the “Boss” that I was concerned about selling my house and relocating to find a house in her area, so I would be needing relocation fee assistance. The “Boss” paused, and offered a $5000.00 relocation assistance fee, which I accepted the proposed relocation fee offer. The “Boss” then explained to me that I would be sharing an

It is imperative that the employee can balance his/her working life against his/her personal life. With sufficient time off and rest periods, employees will feel “looked after” and be motivated to put in more effort. There will be a reduction of mistakes because the employee has had adequate rest which results in a more positive working environment. Employers who introduce such practices in the work place in order to help employees achieve a better and satisfactory work/life balance can expect to see an increase in motivation, enhanced performance/productivity and greater staff loyalty.

The most popular form of time off is vacation time, this is typically a time that has to be scheduled off in advance and the time allotted is determined based on employee seniority. The amount of vacation an employee may receive is determined by many factors in the company such as the industry, organization size and locale. Companies tend to offer one to two weeks for employees after they have had a position for one year, and once the position has been held for five or more years the employee will receive an additional allotment of scheduled time off. Paid holidays are nationally observed holidays such as New Years Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas; an employee would normally get this day off with pay or if asked to work would receive additional compensation for working on the holiday.

We also did research on labor laws regarding wages. We discovered the Minimum Wages Central Rules (1950), which sets standards for the mode of computation for cash value of wages, time and conditions of payment, working hours, night shifts, records, and timekeeping. The Payment of Bonus Act (1965) is an act to provide for the payment of bonus to persons employed in certain establishments on the basis of profits, production, or productivity. We also learned about the Payment of Wages (No.1 of 2017), which ensures that the employers disburse wages payable to employed persons covered by the Act within the prescribed time limit and that no deductions other than those authorized by law are made.
