Notice periods may vary depending on the employment model.
Temporary Staffing:
- From the 1st to the 3rd month, 2 days
- From the 4th to the 6th month, 7 days
- Starting in the 7th month, 1 month from the same day of the following month
Since this is a relatively mandatory provision, these time limits must not be shortened; however, they may be modified on a case-by-case basis in the employment contract in favor of the employee.
Freelancer Contract OR:
This section sets forth the notice periods between the client company and the employee as specified in the contract for services.
Under the commission-based employment contract, the following notice period applies between payroll+ and the employee:
In principle, the employee has the right to terminate the contract immediately at any time without providing a reason. However, agreements with the client must be strictly adhered to. In doing so, the employee must take into account the following information regarding registration with the RAV.
The notice periods are:
- 2 workdays during the three-month probationary period (shortened in accordance with Art. 335b, para. 2, of the Swiss Code of Obligations)
- 30 days after the probationary period (notice of termination may also be given at any time during the month, not just at the end of the month)
To protect the employee, the law requires, pursuant to Art. 335c, paras. 1 and 2 of the Swiss Code of Obligations (OR), that the one-month notice period be observed. Employees are urged to keep an eye on notice periods. As soon as it becomes apparent that no more assignments can be carried out, the employee must notify us so that payroll+ or the employee can terminate the employment contract due to the end of the assignment. The employee should also inform the client of this so that the client can provide advance notice if they no longer have work. Furthermore, the employee must note that, in the event of registration with the RAV, the employee is required to claim wages for the notice period from the employer. Since the employee may no longer receive any payments during this period, payroll+ will not be able to pay out the 97%. This pay stub showing CHF 0.00 will then be included in the calculation of total earnings.
payroll+ Flex:
The contract is concluded as a service agreement in accordance with Article 394 of the Swiss Code of Obligations and may be terminated at any time.
payroll+ SME Payroll Package:
The notice periods agreed upon between the employer and the employee apply here.
Notice periods may not be shorter than those specified in the Swiss Code of Obligations (OR) or the applicable collective bargaining agreement (CBA) for the company.
