You can work in Switzerland for any company in the world
You might be wondering, how can I work and stay legally in Switzerland, when you (still) work for your employer that is not in the EU? Don’t you need a Swiss (or EU) employer to get a residence and work permit? Well, that is where Swiss Employer of Record comes in place. We will be the intermediary and act as your local employer. We will set up the contracts with your place of work and explain the details. An Employer of Record might be a new term for you, but don’t worry, it is a fully established process.
What is an Employer of Record?
An Employer of Record is a company that employs employees on behalf of another company. In most cases, the client company will be based in a different country than the employee. The Employer of Record will therefore handle all employment-related matters such as payroll, contracts, and insurance.
Working remotely from Switzerland for a company based in another country is possible. This arrangement can be beneficial for both the employee and the employer, as it allows the employee to work in their desired location whilst still being employed by the company. It also means that the employer does not have to set up a new company in Switzerland.
Fully compliant with both Swiss and international regulation
If you work on Swiss soil, you must follow Swiss regulations. When you work with Swiss Employer of Record, we will make sure that everything is in order and compliant with both Swiss and international regulations. We will assess if you can work as a contractor or as an employee under Swiss regulations.
Another benefit of working remotely in Switzerland with the help of Swiss Employer of Record is that you are completely covered by Swiss employee benefits. This includes things like health insurance, paid leave, and pension. We will cover IP, tax, NDA and anything your employer may require.
