Tariff - Conclusion: Saxony must pay hundreds of millions of euros more
The collective wage agreement in the public sector will cost Saxony an additional several hundred million euros a year. The Saxon Ministry of Finance announced on Tuesday that there will be additional costs of around 200 million euros in 2024 and around 390 million euros in 2025 for the approximately 63,000 public sector employees in the Free State. The "Sächsische Zeitung" had previously reported this.
In addition, the Saxon cabinet agreed on Tuesday on a simultaneous and system-compatible transfer to civil servants, judges and pension recipients. According to the ministry, this will cost around 174 million euros for 2024 and around 374 million euros for 2025. This will affect around 44,900 civil servants and judges as well as a good 15,200 pension recipients.
The leaders of Verdi and the dbb civil servants' association reached an agreement with negotiators from the Tarifgemeinschaft deutscher Länder (TdL) in Potsdam on Saturday. According to the agreement, the more than one million employees nationwide are to receive special payments totaling 3,000 euros, a basic amount of 200 euros and a subsequent 5.5 percent increase.

The upcoming tariff changes, as agreed upon by Verdi and dbb, will result in special payments of 3,000 euros for over one million public sector employees across Germany, including those in Saxony. These additional costs, along with the public sector wage agreement and the transfer to civil servants, judges, and pension recipients, will significantly increase the financial burden on the BMF in Saxony. According to estimates, these measures could amount to around 968 million euros over the next two years, with Dresden being one of the cities affected.
