Document background
The Temporary Employment Offer Letter is a crucial document used when companies in Switzerland need to hire employees for a specific duration or project. It combines the formality of a job offer with the specific requirements of Swiss employment law, particularly regarding fixed-term contracts. This document should be used when establishing temporary employment relationships, whether for seasonal work, project-based assignments, temporary replacements, or other time-limited positions. The letter must comply with Swiss legal requirements, including mandatory provisions from the Code of Obligations and relevant employment laws. It typically includes essential information about the role, duration, compensation, working conditions, and any specific terms related to the temporary nature of the employment. This document serves as the foundation for the employment relationship and, upon acceptance, becomes a binding temporary employment contract.
