Time recording at banks to be relaxed
The recording of working hours in the banking sector will be relaxed. This was agreed by the social partners this week.
Bank employees with a fixed annual income of CHF 120,000 or more and a high degree of time autonomy are to be allowed to waive the recording of working hours in future. This was announced by the social partners in the banking sector - the Swiss Bank Employees Association (SBPV), the Swiss Commercial Employees Association (Kaufmännischer Verband) and the Swiss Employers' Association (Schweizerischer Arbeitgeberverband).
Employees below the salary threshold, who are largely allowed to set their own working hours, will also be able to record their working hours more easily in future: they will only have to state the hours worked, but not the exact times and breaks.
This agreement is a response to the Compromise proposal in working time recordingwhich the Federal Council announced in mid-February of this year.
However, this should not jeopardize the health of employees: The agreement contains various information and prevention measures for health protection
