ATLAS (Automatisiertes Tarif- und Lohnsystem)

ATLAS (Automatisiertes Tarif- und Lohnsystem) is a computerized system used by German public sector employers and employees to manage and determine wages and benefits based on collective agreements. It automatically calculates salary levels, overtime, allowances, and other entitlements by applying standardized rules and collective bargaining agreements. The system ensures transparency and consistency in payroll processing, reducing administrative errors and streamlining the application of complex wage regulations across different public sector entities. Essentially, ATLAS helps ensure fair and accurate compensation aligned with agreed-upon standards within the public administration.
