i hear so many private companies doing badly and are struggling to stay afloat but I heard from my friends in civil service that they are getting salary revision of up to 5-15% and now they still getting bonus?
NahBeh, I should have joined civil service. Can relax and still get paid, no need to work so hard.

Civil servants to get mid-year AVC of 0.3 months
Government to adopt NWC recommendations for built-in wage increase of at least S$50 for low-wage workers

SINGAPORE - Civil servants will be paid a mid-year Annual Variable Component (AVC) of 0.3 months, against a backdrop of modest economic growth and global economic uncertainty, the Government announced today.
It has also considered the National Wages Council's (NWC) recommendation to grant a built-in wage increase of at least S$50 to low-wage workers earning up to S$1,000 per month, and decided to go beyond these recommendations for civil servants in Divisions IV and III. Division IV officers typically earn a gross monthly salary of between S$860 and S$1,540, while Division III officers typically earn a gross monthly salary of between S$1,150 and S$2,700.
Division IV civil servants, including those earning more than S$1,000 a month, will get an additional increment of S$60 per month. This is in addition to their normal annual increments. Division IV civil servants who have reached the maximum of their salary scales will get the same wage increase of S$60 per month. This will benefit around 3,600 civil servants.
Division III civil servants, all of whom earn more than S$1,000 per month, will get an additional increment of S$30 per month. This is in addition to their normal annual increments. Division III civil servants who have reached the maximum of their salary scales will get the same wage increase of S$30 per month. This will benefit around 5,900 civil servants.
The Civil Service's NWC adjustments for all Division IV and III civil servants respectively will benefit more than 9,500 civil servants.
The mid-year AVC and the built-in wage increase for Division VI and III civil servants will be paid in July.
The Government will decide on the year-end AVC payment for civil servants after taking into consideration Singapore's economic performance in the second half of 2012.
