And in addition to the statutory child allowances, there is also a maintenance allowance with us.

The Swiss Parliament is still discussing it - we implemented it long ago. We also cover 60 % of the contributions. Support in difficult situations We pay attention and take responsibility. Our external confidential counseling center is available anonymously for all concerns of our employees. We cover 65 % of the daily allowance insurance contributions and our case management advises and accompanies people from the beginning to the end of a challenging situation.
