Mar 21, 201115 yr At the peds hospital where I used to work, the evening shift (3pm-11pm) differential was 9%, and the night shift (11p-7a) differential was 15% over day shift (7a-3p).
Mar 21, 201115 yr I don't do nights, however those that do make $5. Evenings are $2.75 and Weekends $3.25
Mar 21, 201115 yr Wow, those are some high differentials being paid! Our facility pays $2.40 an hour from 1500-2300 and $2.90 an hour from 2300-0700. Weekend differential is $2.40 an hour (on top of the previously mentioned differentials). It adds up to quite a bit! I took a big hit when I moved to days, I miss the extra pay.
Mar 21, 201115 yr Our differentials are pretty good then...Night weekdays (Mon-Thurs) 7p-11p is 3.35/hr 11p-7a is 5.00/hrNight weekends (Fri-Sun) 7p-11p is 11.00/hr 11p-7a is 11.35/hr.
Mar 21, 201115 yr any time after 8pm (until you finish your shift) is 25%.Weekends 50%Public Holidays 100%
Mar 21, 201115 yr Wow, I never realized there was such a huge difference in these! I guess all of the hospitals in my area pay about the same. (Well, actually they were all recently sued for it, so I know they do!) My hospital's differentials are as follows:Weekday evenings are $3.75Weekday nights are $4.75Weekends (Friday 2300-Sunday 2300) add $4.25 to the above ratesOther hospitals in the area only differ by 50 cents or so from that.I am curious, are the other's who have posted low differentials or none at all from different areas of nursing? Or just areas with a glut of people who want to work nights and weekends?
