My supervisor wants me to take on more work without a salary increase. For the past three months as a mental health technician, I teach psych-ed, de-escalate situations, conduct drug screenings, and assist with emotional regulation when clinicians are unavailable. Now, my supervisor wants me and the other MHTs to take over home visits, a duty for social workers. When I asked about compensation, he said we'd only be reimbursed for gas and tolls, which feels unfair, especially at my $48k salary.

Yea that’s insane to do that without a salary increase. Mileage can be nice but no amount of mileage can equate to to wear and tear on your car

Absolutely not, especially at your salary. I know acceptable salary depends on location too, I'm not ignoring that, but employee stress and honestly risk factors matter too. Not only are you talking about driving as part of your job (I'm assuming your car insurance isn't through your company so there's that) but also doing home-visits for people with mental health conditions is risky in and of itself. The one reason I've never done home health- you never know what or who is in that house. ***The horror stories I've heard, good Lord ***

If you (and your employer) work for mental health, the additional mental stress you're taking on shouldn't be taken advantage of. For so long as this IS AN ASK, I'd say respectfully decline. If it's added responsibility without compensation... It's too HR, your director, or another job we go.

Good luck with your decision to respond.

They stated 120k+ is extremely high for that role. What do you guys think? Playing the game?

My husband just received a job offer on an opportunity he is really excited about. It would be great for his career and they are giving the 15% jump in base he asked for, however they won’t share what the target bonus amount would be. It’s an executive director position, so I would assume it’s a decent target bonus, but without that in writing it could honestly be a gift basket at the end of the year. Is it a red flag for them to not share this? His total comp could be less at this new job…
