This years’ salary negotiation will definitely take place for 2024, salary negotiation for 2023 which ended in this same year wasn’t all that salary earners expected but once it concluded on that note we commended our leaders for such effort. When preparing for salary negotiations, here are some things to consider:
Research: Do some research to determine the salary range for similar positions in your sector . This will give you an idea of what is reasonable to expect.
Your Value: Evaluate your own worth to the government based on your skills, experience, and contributions. Be prepared to highlight your achievements and how they have positively impacted the nation.
Timing: Choose the right time for your negotiation. This might mean waiting until after a successful project completion, performance review or company growth.
Benefits: Consider other benefits, like health insurance, retirement plans, flexible work arrangements or paid time off, which can also factor into your overall compensation package.
Communication: Practice your communication skills, including active listening and clear articulation of your points.
Collaboration: Negotiations should be approached collaboratively with the employer. Find common ground and work towards a win-win outcome.
Be prepared to compromise: Know what you are willing to compromise on and what is most important to you, whether it's a specific salary, benefits package, or growth opportunities.
Economic challenges: Before a party goes to the table to negotiate or bargain for increment in salaries, current economic conditions should be considered. Will the current increase be able to overcome the current economic challenge or the challenge to come after the negotiation.
In conclusion, bodies responsible for salaries negotiation should be more sensitive than before on the above mentioned points.
