Tjänstregistrering

Tjänstregistrering is a system for registering and tracking public employees' work hours, tasks, and activities in Sweden. It is a government-mandated requirement for public sector employers, including municipalities, government agencies, and some private companies that receive public funding.

The purpose of tjänstregistrering is to ensure accurate and transparent accounting of the work performed by public employees, as well as to facilitate employee administration and evaluation. The system requires employers to register employees' work hours, including regular work hours, overtime, and leave time.

The registration data is typically stored in a central database and can be accessed by authorized personnel. Employers are required to update the registration data regularly and to conduct regular audits to ensure accuracy and compliance.

Tjänstregistrering is also linked to the public sector's pay and benefits system, where the registered work hours are used to calculate employees' salaries and benefits.

Tjänstregistrering has been in effect since 2010, and several software systems have been developed to support the registration and reporting requirements. These systems can be either cloud-based or local installations, and may offer additional functionality, such as time tracking tools and reporting features.

The primary reasons for implementing tjänstregistrering are increased transparency and accountability in public sector employers, improved employee administration, and more accurate accounting of public funds.
