1 in 6 'would not ask for pay rise'

1 in 6 'would not ask for pay rise' One in six graduate employees would not have the confidence to ask for a pay rise, according to new research.

A study conducted by human resources company Ceridian found that only 19 per cent of workers under the age of 34 would be prepared to ask for a wage increase, which may be of note to graduates entering the workplace.

However, 81 per cent of over-35-year-old would be prepared to take the plunge in asking for more money, reports Onrec.

According to the findings, nearly half of respondents said they would be interested in how much colleagues were earning, while 73 per cent said they would not want their own pay details disclosed to anyone.

Piers Hollier, a business psychologist at Getfeedback, commented: "Ceridian's survey shows what a status driven society we have become and in this day and age salary clearly represents status."

Ceridian was established in 1965 and provides HR and payroll services.
