Gainful employment of persons with an S permit

As of March 11, 2022, all individuals seeking protection from Ukraine who have fled since February 24, 2022, due to the Russian military invasion will receive an S permit in Switzerland upon application. With the S permit, persons in need of protection have free access to the Swiss labor market without a waiting period.

However, persons with an S permit are required to obtain an authorization before taking up employment or changing jobs in Switzerland. Therefore, a work permit must be obtained by the employer from the competent labor market authority in the canton of employment before taking up employment.
