Switzerland is an attractive place to work, and the country counts many expats, either working for multi-national companies or for permanent missions, intergovernmental organisations, international institutions such as the UN, as well as NGOs.\u00a0 Most of these workers have the right to bring their families over.\u00a0 What happens when their \u201caccompanying partners\u201d try to apply for jobs in Switzerland?<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

How does an Accompanying Partner find Employment Legally in Switzerland?<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

When someone arrives in Switzerland to work in the UN system, and other organisations, he or she is granted a Carte de L\u00e9gitimation or FDA Card which is a \u201cresidence permit\u201d that allows foreign nationals, whatever their nationality, to live and work in Switzerland.\u00a0 Their partners or spouses are also entitled to a Carte de L\u00e9gitimation, but this does not give them automatic access to the Swiss labour market as it has to be converted into what is called a \u201cCi\u201d permit.<\/p>

In the private sector, foreign nationals who are offered a job in Switzerland will be granted a permit (usually B), and their accompanying partner, will benefit from the same, in order to live and apply for work.<\/p>

EU\/EFTA nationals have certain advantages in that they can apply for a B permit regardless of their spouse\u2019s status or arrangement.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The Challenges Faced by Expat Spouses Looking for Work<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Rachel, who arrived in Geneva from Australia to join her husband working at the UN, struggled to find a full-time job. She found that some employers were not familiar with the Carte de L\u00e9gitimation and was not being offered any interviews. As a result, she decided to look for freelance work but struggled to understand how to do this on her own.<\/p>

Priya, an accompanying partner from India, also faced difficulties finding work. She did not speak French and had two children, and with day-care in Switzerland difficult and expensive to access, Anna decided to work remotely as a freelancer. However, when she researched what it would take to set herself up as an independent worker, she quickly gave up on her dream.<\/p>

Finally, let’s consider the case of Frank, a full-time employee of a US-based company with no physical or legal presence in Switzerland. Frank wanted to keep working for this company remotely out of Geneva, as his spouse had secured an international assignment here. A payrolling company found a solution for him, helping to negotiate the right conditions that allowed him to continue working for his employer legally.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

What is a Payrolling Company?<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

A payrolling company, also known as an \u201cumbrella\u201d, \u201cor salary portage\u201d company, is a third-party service provider that manages the employment and payroll process for employees . These companies handle all administrative tasks, such as tax compliance, social security contributions, and other employment-related processes. The payrolling company is your legal employer: the contract for the work with your end-client is with the payrolling company, who then bills your client and pays you a monthly salary (minus the legal contributions).\u00a0<\/p>

As an employee, you are entitled to certain benefits, such as accident health insurance, a pension plan as well as unemployment benefit should your circumstances change.\u00a0 This would not be the case if you were an independent or even a business owner. For a company that is hiring consultants, the payrolling company is its service provider because it handles all the admin and legal work connected with the freelancer.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

We have seen that a Carte de L\u00e9gitimation does not automatically open the door to the Swiss labour market in the private sector.\u00a0 If you hold a Carte, are not an EU\/EFTA national, and are applying for jobs, the Carte needs to be exchanged for a \u201cCi\u201d permit and it can only be applied for by the employee once a work contract has been secured.<\/p>

If your goal is to work as a freelancer or independent consultant, you will need patience and knowledge of local workings.\u00a0 As Diana Ritchie, founder of Swiss Career Connections, SCC S\u00e0rl, a career coach whose company includes a practice dedicated to accompanying partners, told us: the authorities in Switzerland need pension contributions (AVS\/AHV) to be paid by businesses or organisations for their employees.\u00a0 If someone decides to work for themselves, they must register at a AVS Caisse, and obtain a certificate as an independent, which requires proof of at least 3 clients in order to proceed.\u00a0 Diana has seen cases where the freelancer had also to prove they had set up an office.\u00a0 In addition, there are other pre-required contributions to be made: LAA (accident insurance), LPP (supplementary retirement insurance), and others, which an individual is not always equipped to arrange themselves. A payrolling provider has benefitted many of her clients to start working legally quickly.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Apart from all the advantages we have already listed, using a payrolling company provides support from experts in compliance with Swiss regulations who will ensure that your employment is in accordance with the country\u2019s laws and obligations.\u00a0 This helps to avoid stress when starting your business activity and potential legal faux pas, confirms Diana Ritchie.\u00a0 You will be provided with support, communication and guidance throughout the employment process, even during contract negotiations with your client.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

What about Temporary Agencies?<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The difference between a payrolling company and a temporary agency is that the former acts as your legal employer whilst giving you complete freedom to take on whatever work mandates you want, building up your freelancing business. The freelance consultant is granted complete autonomy to choose their own projects, and set the terms of their work, including their own work schedule and location.\u00a0 The temp agency, on the other hand, finds you temporary work assignments that it has been tasked with, and you are an employee of the agency. \u00a0You can choose to take work on or not but it will only be from the selection the temp agency has on its books.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Using a payrolling company to handle the process of getting a job or working independently or as an accompanying partner, incurs fees: however, when you consider the benefits of using a payrolling company, such as compliance with Swiss regulations as well as support, the fee is worth it.\u00a0 You need to ask yourself the following questions: could I handle all the legal and administrative tasks myself and do I have the time to do it whilst actually doing the work?<\/p>

Whilst it is not compulsory for accompanying partners to use a payrolling company, it can greatly simplify the process of securing employment in Switzerland. From handling administrative tasks to providing support, payrolling companies offer many benefits to foreign nationals looking to work in Switzerland.<\/p>
