SINGAPORE: Civil servants in Singapore will receive a 1.05 months year-end , bonus, with junior-grade officers getting an additional lump sum payment, the Public Service Division ( PSD ) announced on Monday ( Nov 25 ).
An additional one-time payment of S$ 600 will be made for civil servants in the Operations Support Scheme ( OSS) and grades equivalent to MX15 and MX16.
Taken together with the mid-year payments, civil servants will receive a total of 1.5 times in full-year annual variable component ( AVC), with those in the more junior results receiving total lump-sum payment of up to S$ 850 in 2024, said PSD.  ,
The government will continue to pay the Non-Pensionable Annual Allowance ( NPAA ) of 1 month to all civil servants.
This year-end payment takes into consideration that Singapore’s Gross Domestic Product ( GDP ) is expected to grow by around 3.5 per cent in 2024 as well as the National Wages Council ( NWC ) guidelines for 2024/2025, PSD added.  ,
It comes after extensive discussion with the organizations in the open market.  ,
