工会代表无权参与管理决定<br />
There is no statutory duty for Swiss companies to have workers’ councils, but<br />
<strong>in</strong> companies with more than 50 employees they may elect a workers' repre-<br />
sentation. Employees <strong>and</strong> workers' representation (if any) have a statutory<br />
general <strong>in</strong>formation right to be timely <strong>in</strong>formed about matters that need to be<br />
known for the performance of their jobs, <strong>and</strong> once a year they must be <strong>in</strong>-<br />
formed of how the company's results may affect their jobs. Further, they have<br />
some specific statutory <strong>in</strong>formation <strong>and</strong> consultation rights <strong>in</strong> the follow<strong>in</strong>g<br />
cases:<br />
• The employer company is about to be sold by way of an asset deal<br />
or merger;<br />
• The employer plans large-scale layoffs; <strong>and</strong><br />
• The selection of pension fund carriers <strong>and</strong> certa<strong>in</strong> matters of occu-<br />
pational health <strong>and</strong> safety.<br />
瑞士公司没有设立员工委员会的法定义务,但是在拥有 50 名以上员工的公司中,员工可<br />
以选举员工代表。员工及员工代表(若有)拥有法定的知情权。雇主应当及时告知雇员履<br />
行其工作的须知事宜,并且必须每年一次告知雇员公司业绩对其岗位可能产生的影响。此<br />
外,在以下情形中,雇员及雇员代表(若有)拥有某些特定的法定知情权和咨询权:<br />
• 公司将被以资产转让或兼并的方式出售;<br />
• 雇主计划进行大规模裁员;以及<br />
• 与选择退休基金管理人以及某些职业健康和安全问题相关的事宜。<br />
Nevertheless, neither employees nor the workers' representation (if any) have<br />
a statutory right to have a say <strong>in</strong> management matters (even if affect<strong>in</strong>g their<br />
work place environment) except that the employer company may not ex-<br />
change a pension fund carrier without their consent.<br />
不过,除了公司不能在未征得员工及员工代表(若有)同意的情况下更换退休基金管<br />
理人之外,员工及员工代表(若有)在公司的管理工作方面(即使影响其工作环境)<br />
都没有法定的话语权<br />
- No Statutory M<strong>in</strong>imum Wages <strong>and</strong> no Severance Pay<br />
无法定最低工资无遣散费<br />
There are, <strong>in</strong> contrast to most EU member states, no statutory m<strong>in</strong>imum<br />
wage (a m<strong>in</strong>imum wage may apply, however, based on collective barga<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g<br />
agreements) <strong>and</strong> nowhere <strong>in</strong> Europe it is as easy <strong>and</strong> <strong>in</strong>expensive to termi-<br />
nate employment agreements as <strong>in</strong> Switzerl<strong>and</strong>. Term<strong>in</strong>ations, respect<strong>in</strong>g the<br />
applicable notice period, may be given at any time, without giv<strong>in</strong>g reasons<br />
<strong>and</strong> without any severance pay.<br />
不同于欧盟大部分成员国,瑞士没有法定最低工资(不过,集体劳动协议可以约定最<br />
低工资),而且瑞士是欧洲所有国家中终止劳动合同最简单且最便宜的国家。只要遵<br />
守有关的通知期,劳动合同可以随时终止,不需要理由,也不需要支付遣散费。<br />
