The sustainable development goals (United Nations Goals) that the Atmax technologies follow and help the organizations to follow are:


Goal of gender equality, we can do comparison of salary and can inform the leadership team if there is any gap found in pay between the gender.


For the goal of reducing inequalities, we can set triggers in the system if the salaries for people are beyond reasonable range which means right people are getting the right amount of salary. This reduces inequalities as the system does it without any bias and with full transparency.


We also make sure that the system works on the goal of decent work and economic growth by making sure that all the job rotations and changes can happen basis the skills/performance of the employee. Even our system is compatible and can easily work towards bringing unorganised workforce into more organised framework.
