Same pay just that you will get night allowance i would of thought.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Twas just looking for it after i posted,here you are from the way backward deal.

SHIFT ALLOWANCES

EDIT:This is out of date. :d'oh!

There will be assigned shift allowances, paid all-year-round including during holidays and short-term sickness (periods up to two months), for jobholders with attendances as follows:

Dawn shift (starts between 0201-1400) = £20.40 per week fully pensionable
Early shift (starts between 0401-0500) = £10.71 per week fully pensionable
Early shift (starts between 0501-0530) = £5.36 per week fully pensionable
Evening shift (finishes between 2000-2139) = £15.30 per week fully pensionable
Late shift (finishes between 2140-0159) = £31.62 per week fully pensionable
Night shift (three hours worked across 2300-0500) = £61.20 per week (of which £31.62 is pensionable and the remainder non-pensionable, balancing against the higher basic pay)
Split duties (conditioned hours of a single contract £8.67 pw if total span over 10 hours,
Involving two daily non-continuous attendances, £17.34 pw if total span over 12.5 hrs,
Covering at least four days or nights of the week) £25.50 pw if total span over 15 hours.

According to a recent payslip the night shift allowance is now £80.54 per week (£42.48 pensionable, £38.06 non-pensionable).
I'm ex-phg but I can't remember if this is an enhanced rate allowance or not.
Oh, the blahness of it all

Anyone know if you get that for overtime (or SA, whatever it is for listed stuff in Christmas pressure) too?

My shift is 22.00 - 06.00 in a Mail Centre. Monday night to Saturday morning.

Shift allowence is £80.54.

I would assume this would be the same if LDO's still survive a night shift.

But as said in an earlier posting, not all is pensionable.

Haggers.
