'Danger money' nghĩa là trợ cấp dành cho công việc nguy hiểm (extra money that is paid to someone because their job is dangerous).

Ví dụ
Health workers across Liberia went on strike on Monday to demand danger money to care for the sick at the heart of a raging Ebola epidemic that has already killed dozens of their colleagues.

"Sometimes, I think we deserve danger money," says the orchestra's co-director Miranda Hutton, as she shows me how hard it is to slide the hand down the instrument's neck when it is not anchored under the chin.

If you have ever wondered why non-executive directors of banks are paid five times the national average wage for a (very) part-time job, the Prudential Regulation Authority may have an answer: it is danger money. Under proposals covering the so-called Senior Manager’s Regime, non-execs could find themselves threatened with bankruptcy or even jail if their bank fails.
