How to read the table

A notebook, calculator and paperwork on a home planning desk

The left column identifies the pay group and the header identifies the step. Every amount is monthly full-time gross. A missing step is not a salary of zero euros. Your contract, credited relevant service and employer's classification determine the applicable cell.

Select an amount to open the part-time preview. The calculator link carries only group, step, month and working time. This page collects no tax class, insurance details or other personal settings.

A part-time example

MFA: group I, professional years 1–4, 2026: EUR 2,939.59 full-time. At 80% (30.8 hours), use 2,939.59 / 167 × 30.8 × 4.33. Caritas basic table pay is proportional to working time; fixed allowances appear separately in the calculator.

Scope and limits

The reference table does not assign your classification. Calendar-year gross can differ from twelve times the selected monthly amount because of a tariff change. The linked calculator applies supported changes month by month while holding group, step and working time constant throughout the year.

Only the sourced periods shown here are supported. Caritas: 2026, annexes 30–33 in western regions and annex 30 Ost; annex 3 and other Ost combinations are excluded. TdL remains unavailable. No table period is assumed from 2027 onward.
