The below is from the way forward agreement,ignore the amounts obviously as some have gone up and some have..........gone.
SHIFT ALLOWANCES

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/GONE For deliveries.
Early shift (starts between 0501-0530) = £5.36 per week fully pensionable/GONE For deliveries.
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.

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.

Can i add to this by asking if there is anything such as a "Key holders" allowance for night shift staff ?
I work at a delivery office on permanent nights, and are expected to open up the office ourselves.
as stated in another thread, we have never received a supervisory allowance even after repeated requests for it,
i'm not sure if the key holders allowance exists though :neutral:
