SINGAPORE - Civil servants will each get a $500 one-off payment to mark Singapore's 50th birthday this year, the Public Service Division (PSD) said on Wednesday.
They will receive this special payment on top of their mid-year bonus this year, which will amount to half a month's pay.
Lower-wage Division IV civil servants will also get a wage increase of $30 a month, over and above their annual increment this year.
These payments, which will be made in July, were decided on after "close consultation with the public sector unions", the PSD said in a statement.
