Who Decides How Much a Shift Pays?

Shift pay on Bacon is determined by the business posting the job. While we provide businesses with average wage data to help them stay competitive, the final decision on pay is entirely up to them.


What If a Shift Doesn’t Pay Enough?

If you feel a shift doesn’t offer a competitive wage, simply skip it. One of the benefits of Bacon is the flexibility to choose shifts that meet your pay expectations. Businesses often adjust their rates to attract workers like you, so keep an eye out for better opportunities.


How Much Can You Make Per Hour with Bacon?

Hourly pay on Bacon varies by shift and is set by the business. Depending on the shift, you could earn between $10 and $25 per hour. To calculate your hourly wage, divide the total shift payout by the hours listed. Keep in mind that if you work fewer or more hours than originally listed, your pay will be adjusted accordingly.
