Every date, and the day it falls on
Singapore’s published eleven-holiday calendar is used with Sunday as the rest day. Sunday holidays are represented by the official Monday replacement, once per holiday. If a holiday falls on a non-working Saturday, another day off or extra pay may be due; that choice is not assigned here. The baseline is partial for actual employee capacity. Different rest days require the employer’s calendar.

| Fri, Jan 1 | Friday | New Year’s Day | |
| Sat, Feb 6 | Saturday | Chinese New Year - day 1 | Weekend |
| Mon, Feb 8 | Monday | Chinese New Year - day 2 (Sunday rest-day replacement) | |

How do these holidays affect a working calendar?
The 2027 dates shown here include 8 Monday-to-Friday holidays, 3 Saturday dates and 0 Sunday dates. A Monday-to-Friday calendar subtracts the included weekday dates once. Whether weekend holidays create a substitute day or reduce statutory hours depends on the country, region, employer and working schedule.
A listed national or federal holiday is not automatically a paid day off for every private employer. Check the scope statement above: it identifies the calendar being used and the local exceptions. Observed dates already included in the list must not be added a second time. Employer-specific substitutions and regional holidays need an additional check.
What should be checked before the schedule is finalized?
- Confirm the workplace’s country and region, plus any sector-specific holiday rules.
- Choose the actual working weekdays and check official substitute dates.
- Place approved leave and company closures in the schedule separately from public holidays.
- Keep the schedule and the record of hours actually worked as separate documents.
