Before I respond to your inquiry, I must state that we have not spoken, I have not reviewed the relevant documents and facts, and I do not represent you. Therefore, my discussion below is not a legal opinion, but is informational only. Finally, my discussion applies only to issues to which Pennsylvania, New Jersey or Federal law applies, unless otherwise specified.
That being said, unless you have a contract or collective bargaining agreement stating that manager-level work gets manager-level pay, your employer generally doesn't have to pay you at that level, even if you do the work (unless they agreed to beforehand). If the employer treats you differently than other employees doing this type of work due to your race, gender, age, disability, etc., then you may have a claim of employment discrimination. Without knowing your job and certification issues, I couldn't address that concern. Finally, if you are working on certain government projects, you may have a claim for prevailing wages if you aren't paid for the job you are actually doing.
