What is fair?
I currently work for a non profit Outpatient Treatment program in NYC. My base salary barely covers my monthly expenses. My employer was rewarded with a contract (largely due to the caliber of work consistently produced by the staff) that allows the company to increase the number of consumers we serve, and the amount of money that is recieved to perform the task. The organization has increased the operating budget by over fifty percent; First, there is not enough physical space to service the consumers. All of my co workers and I are required to do more, and the quality of the work has not diminished in light of the influx of consumers. Given all of this,the organization I work for is reluctant to increase the salaries of the employees, whom make their operating budget more than profitable, ( IE: last year there was a surplus in the budget of over sixty thousand; which was not given as bonuses or incentives for the employees). Considering that most of the employees reside in NYC, where the rents have/do increase by six to eight per cent yearly, not to mention the price of living. What is fair?
