Upgrading designation and salary upon changing job duties
I am an employee in a company in Dubai since the last two years, with an unlimited contract and my total salary is AED 3000 (Joining date: 01/01/2016).
In the first year, I was doing an operational activity in a logistics company like documentation of all import/ export Inquiries (Designation in visa: Client Service Clerk).
In addition, I was helping the accountant as an assistant because the management decided that I shall help him in accounts. I am an employee with a postgraduate degree (M.Com Degree).
On the 4th January 2017, our accountant (Designation: Accounts Manager) left the company due to personal reasons. His salary was while joining AED 5000, and when he left the company after two years and a half that time was AED 6200.
The management asked me to take the position of an accountant and I accepted it. I was thinking that I will get AED 5000 salary of an accountant from the next month, but till this date, after 10 months, I am getting AED 3000.
I asked several times to change my designation and upgrade my salary, but they are giving the same answer that the company is at a loss.
As long as you are working in the company who provided the visa there is no issue of the job profile changes.
There is no requirement that if you are a clerk you cannot do the job of an accountant unless there is a requirement by the authority that all accountants must be registered (and the company has to pay the fee for you to undergo a training).
You have to negotiate a better salary.
