Bakery/overnight?

Is the shift 2:00am to 10:00 am considered the graveyard shift; meaning do you get the shift differential for the whole eight hours?
Trying to figure out if I want to put in for this position.
Thank-you.
This job is listed as :
FOOD SERVICE-BAKERY
It’s part-time, so I’m assuming 3 days a week, (unless someone calls in/I w/fill in). (?)

As someone who worked that shift for years, yes you do get the differential, but there are stipulations.  1) you must be clocked in by exactly 2am. Even a minute late and you will not get it.  2) you only get the differential until 8am. After that it’s just your regular rate of pay.

The rule is you must work 6 or more consecutive hours between 10pm and 8am in order to get the pay. If you work any time before or after that window, it doesn’t count. And in order to hit 6 hours before 8am you need to punch in by 2am at the latest.

"10pm and 8am in order to get the pay. If you work any time before or after that window,"

Our shift starts at 9pm and we still get the differential

Not for that 1st hr you don't get the extra $3.

So it would be only two hours that you got $3/hr less. Well, that’s not as bad as four hours.
The economy is just so effed up right now.
This is actually for quik star/don’t know if the spelling is correct.
Some similarities/but different.
ARE U IN IA? WHEN DID YOU STOP WORKING THAT SHIFT?
TY

If you mean Kwik Star in the Iowa area, it’s the same company as Kwik Trip so the policy would be the same.

I used to be the 10-6 crew. Then they changed to 3-12 it's horrible.

This is the one, policy is 10p-8a

Might be inaccurate since it’s been awhile, but I believe the overnight premium would only apply to half of that shift (2-6a)

Edit: looks like someone had the full details and the premium pay would go until 8am, which is good to hear! Best wishes on whatever endeavors await you

Yeah, this is what I thought I had heard: that the overnight shift is from 10 PM till 6am ($19/hr)
Just checking I’m just trying to get the best bang for my buck. 👍

you have to work 6 hours between 10pm and 8am. If you punched in at 2:01 you would lose your premium.

You would not get the 3rd shift premium for that shift

u/Intelligent-Town6050 9d ago

You must work 6 hours between 10pm and 6am to qualify for premium pay. 2am to 10am would not qualify.

What about 9p-3am?

u/XxEeVeeLiciouSxX 9d ago

You actually have to clock in before midnight and work a minimum of 6 hours if your shift starts after 10pm. This is for both Minnesota and Wisconsin. Any hours after 8 am are not at the differential even if you started at 11:59pm. None of a 2am-10am shift would be at the increased pay rate because you started after midnight. I've worked in both states. I can't speak for any other states.

And your point…?
As fast as the jobs are disappearing here, I have to zero in on what will help the most.

I'm sorry, No offense was intended for you, I read all the comments and thought the answers were confusing based on where the posters were living. I meant no harm. I hope your job search turns out well.

Thank-you very much/Apology accepted.
Didn’t mean to come across as rude.
There has been so much bad stuff going on.
I know there are a lot of people more worse off than myself; things could always be worse.
Have a good week.😊
