[NCASG] NCASG: Shift Premium Pay

Wed Feb 10 13:18:38 MST 2021

Hi Lorence,

Please see New York's responses:

  1.  Yes, shift pay differentials.

  1.  Full-time permanent employees. Temporary, hourly employees are not eligible, but agencies could choose to offer a shift differential by factoring the premium into an employee's hourly rate. Permanent employees participating in NY's voluntary reduction in work schedule program (60%, 80%, etc.), receive a prorated amount based on shifts worked.

  1.  Authorized for employees who are "regularly assigned" to "a work shift other than a normal day shift." Regularly assigned is defined as scheduled to work a shift other than a normal day shift on an other than temporary basis. See answer to question #4 as well.

  1.  Not defined by hours. An employee is considered regularly assigned to a night or evening shift if the employee works no less than 10 working days in a 2-week period on such a shift. An employee regularly assigned to the day shift whose schedule is changed to a night shift for 1 or 2 days is ineligible for a shift pay differential because the assignment is temporary.

  1.  Evening and night, including weekend evening and night shifts. However, there is currently no statutory ability to pay a weekend premium to employees who work day shifts on the weekend.

  1.  Varying rates by occupation. Shift pay differentials are approved for titles as annual amounts and divided into each pay check. See https://www.cs.ny.gov/sstse/index.cfm, and run for Shift Pay Differentials (130.6) for approved amounts for specific titles. This will provide you with a general sense of approved amounts.
