[NCASG] Shift Differentials

[Howard, Karen]

Fellow NCASG Partners -

The State of Missouri is working to assess how other states handle shift differentials for nurses<https://protect-us.mimecast.com/s/6SNECNkBK0UMQZKKsmRZyc?domain=pers.oa.mo.gov> and support care staff<https://protect-us.mimecast.com/s/B7boCOYDX8I2gNVVsvorXO?domain=pers.oa.mo.gov> (linking to our job families for reference). We are hoping that you might be able to provide us with information relating to which classifications receive differentials in your state, what the amount of the differential(s) is set at, and any other information that might be relevant. Our current shift differentials include:

  *   9% of base pay for Registered Nurses working on evening and night shifts.
  *   30¢/hour for certain classifications beginning work between noon and 5:00 a.m.
  *   $1/hour for nursing team members who work an evening shift beginning no earlier than 10:30 a.m. and ending no later than 11:45 p.m.
  *   $1.50/hour for nursing team members who work a night shift that begins no earlier than 9:30 p.m. and ends no later than 7:15 a.m.
  *   Varying percentage differentials for classifications assigned to sexual offender units and intermediate/maximum security areas (range from 3.3-12%).

If your state could help us answer the following and/or provide us any links/documents to review, we would greatly appreciate it:

  1.  What titles and salary ranges are used for your nurses and/or support care staff? (If it makes it easier, you can just send us a copy/link to your nursing and support care specifications and salary ranges.)
  2.  Do any of your nursing/support care staff receive a pay differential for evening and/or night shift?
     *   If yes, which titles?
                                                               i.      Does this include any non-licensed team members (i.e., housekeepers, food service workers, behavioral technicians, etc.)?

     *   If yes, how do you distinguish between evening and night shift?
     *   If yes, what is the pay differential for those working evening shifts?
     *   If yes, what is the pay differential for those working night shifts?
  1.  If not already explained above, do your nursing managers/directors receive any kind of differential? If not, does your state have any concerns/issues with nurses "leapfrogging" managers that do not receive the shift differential?
  2.  Does your state offer weekend differential pay to any/all team members? If so, please provide details of the classifications included and the amount of the differential.
  3.  Lastly, does your state offer retention differential pay to any/all team members? If so, please provide the details of the classifications included and the amount of the differential.

Please respond by Friday, June 10. Thanks so much for your help!
