If you ask this question to anyone you come across, the typical response that you will receive is “No”. We all seem to think that we are either overworked or underpaid. To find out your true worth, here are a series of steps you could take. Firstly, evaluate your skills, qualifications and abilities honestly. Secondly, make comparisons with your colleagues and other workers in similar organizations. Thirdly, visit job portals and other websites that offer Salary Survey reports which give you data by the sector, region and level of responsibility. Fourthly, upload your CV at various job boards to find your ‘market value’. Finally, evaluate your commitment to work. It has been observed that employers value an employee that has remained with them for several years. So ask yourself that how committed have you been to the organization and whether you have had a result-oriented approach or not.

If you are convinced that you are not being paid your true worth and decide to find a better paying job, consider the fact that there is a ‘cost of relocation’. Therefore, firstly, you should talk to your boss. In your discussion, use your data collected online to stress your point. Bring into reference, your skills, education and work experiences. Highlight your work performance by comparing the job description with what you actually do in your job. At all times, maintain your confidence.
