About that new shift differential.......for those it applies to anyway....... - Kiki1


Posted: Jan 02, 2011

I think I may have spoken too soon when I said they basically got rid of it.  Math is definitely not my thing, but after studying it further, isn't it basically the same? 

It says,

An additional $0.0075 per line or $0.09 per report for work transcribed between the hours of:  (and then it gives the different hours for each time zone).............


Isn't that what it was before?  And the .09 cents per report, is this for radiology reports?  ???

I believe it was 1 CPL more for the grave-yard hours and - me in PA

so that would be 0.01 CPL and then half a cent per line additional for the evening hours (say, 6-10PM, I believe), so that would be written as 0.005.

I have no idea what the 9CPL means.

You are correct, but only if you work a certain schedule - sm

They also shortened the time window by 2 hours (I think, could be more, I don't have the letter in front of me, something like it starts at 8pm instead of 6pm depending on timezone). I start work at around 5, so I actually lost $50 a paycheck. If, however, you start work within the window, I don't believe you will be seeing too much of a difference. If you only ever worked within the evening differential, your differential increased, but only for a shorter window of time, so you may be making around the same, not sure though. Those that only worked the night shift on the other hand took a .025 pay cut.

I am confused. I work 2 to midnight PST. Did I get a cut for my shift differential or an increase? I can't believe it would be an increase. What is MT rewards anyway?

You should have gotten an email regarding the change. Anyway, can't remember exactly what it was before, but something like 6-10 was evening rate at a half-cent cpl and 10-6 was night at 1 cent cpl. Now, depending on where you are, rate is 3/4 of a cent. In EST it is from 9 p.m. to 5:59 a.m. Can't remember what it was for PST, I'm thinking 6 p.m. to 3 or 4 a.m. It is very confusing but I don't think you will lose anything. Sounds like you had some evening and some night hours, so it will probably balance out. LOL

How Does Shift Differential Work?
Dec 26, 2012

Kinda confused about the shift differential and how it works.  I worked about 2.5 hours before the 6:00 a.m cutoff.  I did 1008 lines today in that amount of time.  Do I take the 1008 and multiply it by my shift differential amount and then subtract that 1008 from the total lines for the day, or is the shift differential "extra" in our pay?  Really don't have a clue how to figure this and I work these hours everyday.  Would like to know before the first paychec ...
