Case Study: De Facto Employee During A Project Assignment In Switzerland

For the German version, please read here >>

The Swiss company "Wilhelm Tell LLC." restores theater stages and is known for its affinity for art and the quality of its work. For an assignment at the Bernese Museum of Art, it requires specialist staff, which is why it engages the British company "BestArtWorkers Ltd.", which also involves self-employed workers from the UK. These people are long-term subcontractors of the British company and work primarily as art painters or restoration specialists.

The HR manager of the Swiss company therefore registered 3 people for the next assignment in Bern using the online notification procedure. All of them were registered as self-employed service providers on behalf of the British / Swiss company and not as employees of the British "BestArtWorkers Ltd.".
