Shift Differential

All non-exempt employees who work a shift other than the normal daytime shift will be paid a premium hourly amount (shift differential) in addition to their regular pay.

The evening shift is one that regularly starts on or after 2 p.m. but before 10 p.m. The night shift is one that regularly starts on or after 10 p.m. but before 4 a.m. Shift differentials shall be paid only to those employees who work at least a full eight-hour shift. Exception: An employee called in for the remainder of a shift will be paid applicable shift differential. Shift differentials shall be included in determining overtime compensation. (HR 213)
