Document background
The Employee Suspension Letter is a crucial document used in Swiss employment relations when an employer needs to temporarily remove an employee from their workplace duties while maintaining the employment relationship. This might occur during investigations of misconduct, performance issues, or other workplace concerns. The document must align with Swiss employment law, particularly the Swiss Code of Obligations and cantonal regulations, and typically includes details about the suspension's duration, payment status, employee obligations, and communication protocols. It serves as a formal record of the suspension decision and helps ensure compliance with legal requirements while protecting both employer and employee interests. The letter is particularly important in Switzerland's highly regulated employment environment, where proper documentation and clear communication are essential for managing employment relationships.
