Subject: Salary Discrepancy Complaint

Dear [Recipient’s Name],

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a salary discrepancy issue that I have recently discovered, which I believe requires immediate attention and resolution. It has come to my attention that there is a significant wage gap between my salary and that of my colleagues in similar roles.

I have been with [Company Name] for [duration] and have consistently demonstrated my dedication, hard work, and commitment to the company’s success. However, upon recent discussions with my colleagues and further investigation, I have discovered a significant disparity in compensation for individuals in comparable positions. This revelation has left me feeling undervalued and concerned about fair and equitable treatment within the organization.

I would like to bring the following points to your attention:

Wage gap evidence: Through conversations with colleagues, industry research, and comparisons with individuals in similar roles at other organizations, I have gathered substantial evidence supporting the existence of a salary discrepancy within our company. This gap appears to be based on factors unrelated to performance or qualifications.

Impact on morale and motivation: The realization of this wage gap has negatively impacted my morale and motivation. It has become increasingly challenging for me to remain motivated and dedicated to my responsibilities when there is a perceived lack of recognition and fair compensation for my contributions.

Commitment to diversity and inclusion: [Company Name] has long been recognized for its commitment to diversity and inclusion. However, this salary discrepancy raises concerns regarding gender or other potential biases that may exist within our compensation structure. Addressing this issue aligns with our company’s values and ensures fair treatment for all employees.

Desired resolution: I kindly request a thorough review of my compensation package and an adjustment that reflects fair and equitable pay for my role, experience, and performance. I believe it is essential to address this issue promptly and transparently to maintain a positive work environment and retain valuable employees.

I understand that addressing salary discrepancies can be a complex process involving various factors. However, I trust that [Company Name] is committed to fostering a fair and inclusive work environment where all employees are compensated equitably for their contributions.

I appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to your response. I am confident that by working together, we can rectify this situation and maintain a harmonious and motivated workforce at [Company Name].

Thank you for your understanding and prompt action.

Sincerely,

[Your Name]
