I was underpaid for approximately 4 months and I tried to tell my manager and HR about it after I realised after 1 month that I was being underpaid.

They have provided a back pay but I am not happy about the outcome.

I know that they have provided the compensation for it but I don't think a "sorry" would be fair for them.

I'm thinking of reporting them to FairWork.
Should I?

If it was an honest mistake that they haven't made since, I'd just let it go.

To provide more context:

They forgot to change my role when I got promoted from being a Porter to a Guest Service Agent, I had to bring it up multiple times too and they finally changed it after a couple of months but not my pay. They insisted that they had genuinely forgotten about the contract and no clear explanations behind it.

When I brought the issue up, my pay was apparently correct and there shouldn't be any changes to my pay.
Then I looked up what the minimum wage was for what I was working as and turns out I was right all along.

Yeah, look a bit of patience helps. They've repaired the mistake, and that's what really matters.

Keep an eye out - if it's a genuine mistake then it won't happen again.

If they're playing games after this, then walk away and report them.

I guess it's a question of how much?
Ask yourself is it worth reporting them for that amount?

Hi there. What is considered a good salary for a project manager?

My current salary is under market average for my position but based off my coworkers’ negative experiences with asking for raises/promotions, I’m not really sure how to go about starting the conversation with my manager. There’s also a rumor going around that the company is going to scale back on our marketing efforts even though our VP tells us a different story. Either way I need more money and I just want to have that conversation before I begin looking for a new job.
