Three public holidays fall on a Friday:

Labour Day (May 1)
Christmas Day (Dec 25)

Three public holidays fall on a Sunday:

Vesak Day (May 31)
National Day (Aug 9)

The following Mondays will be a public holiday.

There were four public holiday long weekends this year, and five in 2024.

Employees who are required to work on a public holiday are entitled to an extra day’s salary at the basic rate of pay, in addition to their gross rate of pay for that day, said MOM.

Employers and employees may mutually agree to substitute a public holiday for another working day, it added.

Employers also have the option of granting time-off-in-lieu, based on a mutually agreed number of hours, for working on a public holiday for the following group of employees: Workmen earning more than S$4,500 (US$3,500) a month; non-workmen earning more than S$2,600 a month; and all managers and executives.
