Income Replacement Scheme
Persons residing in Switzerland or abroad are entitled to compensation for loss of earnings (EO),
- who serve in the Swiss Armed Forces, the Women’s Military Service, and the Red Cross Service;
- perform community service;
- serve in civil defense;
- participate in federal or cantonal Youth and Sports leadership courses;
- participate in youth shooting instructor courses.
For each period of service, service members receive a reporting card from the accounting officers or the implementing agency detailing the days of service they have completed, and they forward these cards, fully completed, to payroll+.
We will certify your pre-service salary on the EO application form and forward it immediately to your compensation office. This ensures that your EO benefits are paid out as quickly as possible.
