Not sure about the night allowance,someone will be able to answer that in a min.
But Dont forget you get WSM allowance which is pro rata.

Are you still working part time or are you doing full hrs?

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.

I am a 25 contract but easily pass the 40 hour mark every week.

I will be working the full hours whilst on nights and thanks for reminding me about the WSM allowance...it just seems to be a grey area in getting a definite answer... :hmmmm

PART-TIME EMPLOYEES

....From the implementation date (Monday 3 July 2000) all weekly and daily elements of pay, including
shift, assigned and other allowances, for part -time employees will be paid pro-rata to their conditioned
hours against a 40-hour gross working week.

Hours worked by part-time employees up to a 40-hour week will be paid at single rate and become pensionable
from the implementation date for part-time SWW onwards. Single rate overtime up to 40 hours gross will
include any due elements of London pay ranges, RRIS and assigned allowances (including shift allowances) pro-rata.
These single rate hours will also count as conditioned for the purpose of assessing entitlement to ad hoc shift
payments and allowances.
