Common use of Change of Shift Allowance Clause in Contracts

Change of Shift Allowance. ‌ 39.1 An Employee who changes from working on one shift to working on another shift, the time of commencement of which differs by four hours or more from the first, will be paid a change of shift allowance for each such change except as provided at subclauses 39.3 and 39.4 below.‌ 39.2 The change of shift allowance will be an amount equal to 4% of the rate applicable to the first year of experience after qualifications for that Employee and is in addition to any other amount payable. 39.3 Exception – two contracted positions‌ The change of shift allowance is not payable where an Employee holds two contemporaneous, contracted, different positions with the same Employer and moving between those positions results in a change of shift pattern that would ordinarily invoke a change of shift allowance payment.
