POLLING Day next Saturday will be a public holiday as Singaporeans go to the polls to cast their votes in Singapore's 11th General Election.
Those who have to work on Polling Day are to receive a day's pay or given another day off, said the Manpower Ministry.
And workers whose day off falls on Polling Day are entitled to a day-off-in-lieu or one day's pay, its statement added.
The ministries said companies should treat Polling Day in the same manner as any other public holiday, as given under Section 35 of the Parlimentary Elections Act.
