I have a PGWP not employer specific and I have been working for the employer for a year

In that case your employer needs to obtain an approved LMIA if you want to claim the 50 job offer points.
 
Is that something I can ask my employer to do or is it unorthodox?

It's a long and expensive process. However you can certainly ask your employer if they are willing to do so.
