Many employees have struggled to utilise annual leave allowances due to COVID-19 travel restrictions and boarder closures. Singaporeans have taken to exploring their own backyard, with hotels seeing a spike in local bookings over the past year. This is in part due to a government initiative to support hoteliers with a staycation stimulus package worth S$45 million.
Some unused leave may be able to be carried forward, depending on company policy. And with vaccination rates rising around the world, 2022 looks to be a more promising year of international travel, with companies already in talks about travel bubbles, green lanes, and loosing of restrictions for vaccinated travellers.
To prepare to use your 2022 leave allowance, along with any carried forward leave, we’ve put together a calendar of the 2022 public holiday dates in Singapore, along with which dates to apply for leave to truly make the most of the long weekends.
