Is demanding a salary increase a form of asking people for help?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, when I ask my employer and my sponsor for a salary increase, is this considered asking people for help?

Answer:
This is a request for your right, asking for an increase in wages because you are working. This is in exchange for work; no one has a claim to it except Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He).
