There's hope a new pay deal for police will see less disruption in the daily lives of officers.

Constables through to senior sergeants who have a roster change within 14 days, will now get $100.

An extra $50 will be paid out for subsequent changes during the same two week period.

Police Association President Chris Cahill told Mike Hosking it will penalise short notice changes staff had been experiencing.

He says in the past, the shift changes were happening even on big events such as Christmas and Easter.

The money will also be available for police civilian staff.
