Today, 36% of employees in Switzerland
are affected by conflicts at work.
Any Swiss company that employs employees is now required to implement a prevention mecanism for psychosocial risks and conflicts, such as the Trusted Person. The Federal Court rendered a judgment in May 2012 which specifies the contours of this role.
The “Trusted Person” acts completely independently from the Management of the company, the Human Resources and Legal departments and in addition is subject to professional secrecy.
The main role a “Trusted Person” is a "watching brief" for the Company, to prevent the risk of conflicts and to ensure a healthy work life balance for all.
