Hi, I work in HR and 10% is a HUGE raise and pretty much unheard of. You should be very happy with that. Asking for another raise just 9 months later, is not appropriate. Most people are lucky if they get a yearly raise of around 3%, so you've already gotten way more than that. If you have absentee problems, it can effect your raise. It depends on why you got that big raise in the first place. Because it's so big, I assume you were on a lower salary for a 6 month trial period and they raised you up to a normal salary for that job, when you performed well. If your company does performance evaluations every year, that may be the time of year that you can look for cost of living or merit raises, if they give them. You should find out from your supervisor, (they should have told you already) what the annual procedure is for reviews. Reviews are usually tied into raises. Because you got a big jump when you were new, you may not be on the list for this year's raise. You should find out, but you can't be greedy for more after a jump like that.

I would wait another 3 months before asking for a raise. Because you have been absent from work, right now you aren't in a position to ask for a raise. Wait 3-9 more months and wait it out.

Normal raises for everyone might be scheduled for a time that is within the next 3 months. Since you got a substantial raise after your probationary period, that is a good sign they like you. Ask a long-time co-worker if there are regular annual raises given at the same time every year. You just might have to wait another 3 months for the "cycle".
Your time off shouldn't affect any raise. I assume you get vacation time, and personal leave time.

I'd probably wait another 3 months. Asking for a raise is fine as long as you feel like you deserve it based on your work. A raise every 1 year is reasonable.

10% is pretty high after 6 months. I would wait another 3 months because raises usually occur once per year. Also, in 3 months that week that you took off of work may be long forgotten. Don't do it while it is fresh in your employers mind.

Wait a year since your last raise. Most places will give you a cost of living increase. Anything less than 3% is an insult because its less than inflation.

depends on what your company policy is. ask your hr rep. for an employee handbook and manuel before going in asking any questions. Then have them explain any misunderstood or confusing questions before you ask for the raise. then once you get everything straight you can ask when you should expect your next raise.

Your absence should not effect any raise, especially if it is reasonable. I would first look to when you have your employee reviews. Haven't you had one at your year mark? I would have asked then. You can ask for a raise, it doesn't hurt to ask. But, if your organization regularly has employee reviews...I would look to ask then.

attempt a music motorbike because it really is lifeless user-friendly to apply and connect, hit upon the thanks to fix that then progression to a hub equipment music motorbike to get used to the gears after that then commence on geared street motorcycles. My previous biking club advised me to commence off with an historic ten velocity street motorbike operating my way as a lot as a mild-weight Raleigh street motorbike with Reynolds 501 body which has been replaced with a pc Aided layout Peugeot, a mountain motorbike hybrid with an extremely skinny body plus drop bars now switched over to a unmarried velocity. commence on the bottom and artwork your way up, starting up with a sophisticated motorbike can positioned you of biking for a lengthy time period.
