Evening all,

I am applying for jobs and have a query that I really don't want to put to a recruiter or employer just yet and possibly betray a lack of experience or knowledge.

Shift allowance.

Exactly what does it mean? For example, if a job involves say 1/4 of the work to be night-shift, will a 25% (or whatever) shift allowance be applied to all pay, or only those hours worked at night? Do employers apply this consistently or do some do one thing, and others a different thing?
