If your shift work allowance ceases or is significantly reduced for a reason other than the reasons stated in Article 12 (business reasons or being found to be medically unfit), you will not be entitled to an adjustment allowance under Article 12, unless:

  • you are aged 45 years or more, and
  • your shift work allowance is more than 10% of your individual job salary, and
  • your shift work allowance ceases entirely or is reduced by more than 10% of your individual job salary, and
  • the ending or reduction of the shift work allowance is not due to replacement of cash compensation with compensation in time.


If you meet the above conditions, you will receive a part of the adjustment allowance in accordance with the table in Article 13. The amount of this part depends on your age, as follows:

  • at 45 to 49 years: 12.5% of the adjustment allowance in accordance with the table in Article 13;
  • at 50 to 54 years: 25.0% of the adjustment allowance in accordance with the table in Article 13;
  • at 55 to 59 years: 37.5% of the adjustment allowance in accordance with the table in Article 13;
  • at 60 years and over: 50.0% of the adjustment allowance in accordance with the table in Article 13.


Article 14 applies mutatis mutandis.
