What amount of premium is required for night shift work, as specified in the law?

The requirement for a premium for night shift work is set at not less than 10%. This standard is established to compensate employees for the potential adverse effects associated with working during hours that are typically considered outside the normal daytime work schedule. Night shifts can disrupt circadian rhythms, lead to health issues, and create challenges in balancing family and social life. Therefore, legislation mandates that employers provide this premium to recognize and financially support employees who are willing to work non-traditional hours. This minimum premium serves as an incentive and a form of compensation for the sacrifices made by night shift workers.
