# Do you provide transportation for employees working on Sundays and public holidays?

**Short answer:** Yes, every day of the year; tell us the dates early.

Yes. Shiv Shakti Tours & Travels runs staff transport on Sundays, public holidays and festival days, for weekend production, maintenance shutdowns and any day your plant works. Send the dates and headcount in advance; on busy festival days such as Navratri and Diwali week, early notice makes sure the vehicles are kept for you.
