Thank you bhaisahab.

Is this sentence correct, then?:

People are afraid of losing their jobs, that's why they hardly ever try to obtain payrises, even though most of them would like to see their salaries increased.

(another question: could we say "afraid to lose" instead of "of losing" in this case?).

Cheers.

Yes, you can, of course. I'd say " I want to have my TV repaired by tomorrow. So would I say " I want to have my salary raised.";-)
