Im just a medical assistant, but I complete spirometry, DLCO, FENO, MVV, 6 minute walk tests and a few more odds and ends along with being the primary restocker for the whole department when it comes to supplies. Im currently getting paid 21.84 and the pay range is $21.84-$31.8. Even my coworkers who are RT's or PFT's say how much I provide for the team and how I "do a lot more than just an MA" What should I do? I feel like I definitely provide a ton of help to the team even if im just an MA

I would honestly approach your boss about a raise. Gather the reasons and justifications for why you should be paid more and then ask for a meeting. It definitely sounds like you are underpaid.

Well, I talked to him about it and he said since the MA’s are part of the union, He can’t warrant any sort of pay increase
