If the worker only crosses into this 4 hours period for say half an hour, at either end, does the whole shift accrue the extra payment?
Also, are you looking at a one off extra payment if the shift crosses into this 4 hour period or an additional hourly amount?
Sorry for all the additional questions but the original post was a little vague on details.

Hi Spencer,
Not a problem at all.
The additional payment is for the whole shift as long as a individual has covered 12-4am. So for example, if they worked 8pm - 4am, they would receive an extra £1.50 per hour for 8 hours.
If the individual only works couple of hours within that window, they would not receive a payment. They must have worked 12-4. If they work 8pm - 12.30am, they would not receive any night shift allowance. Even if they work, say 11pm-7am, because they 4 hour window is being worked, they would get night shift allowance for the whole 8 hours.
I hope this helps but please let me know if you require any more.
Thanks
