Registration with all involved authorities

As a private employer who employs a domestic help you are required to settle social security contributions with the Cantonal compensation office. quitt automatically registers the employer and employee with the relevant authority and decides which accounting procedure is to be used on the basis of the information provided.

The income of foreign employees is subject to withholding tax. Based on a few questions, quitt determines whether your domestic help is subject to withholding tax. If this is the case, quitt will automatically register your domestic help with the relevant cantonal tax authority and convey all necessary information on the employee’s employment and life situation to this authority.

For employment relationships with a gross salary above CHF 1’837.50 per month or CHF 22’050 per year, employers are required to register their employees with a pension fund for the occupational pension provision (BVG/2nd pillar). quitt collaborates with the pension fund Valitas Compacta for this purpose. If the salary exceeds the BVG limit, quitt will automatically register your employee with Valitas Compacta.

quitt will take care of all communication and correspondence with the above-mentioned authorities on your behalf.

Taking out compulsory accident insurance

All employees in Switzerland must be insured by their employer against accidents (OAI). Non-occupational accident insurance (NOAI) also becomes compulsory for employees who work at least 8 hours a week or more. The employer bears the costs for the OAI, while the employee carries the costs for the NOAI.

quitt will take out this compulsory insurance for every private domestic help on your behalf with Baloise Insurance. From the third day after the day of an accident, the AI continues to pay 80% of the gross salary. If damage occurs, quitt will take care of damage management, communicate with the insurance partners and ensure the payment of possible daily allowances.

The insurance premium OAI is currently 0.5% of the gross salary, but at least CHF 8.35 per employer and month. The NOAI insurance premium is 1.6% of the gross salary, but at least CHF 8.35 per employee and month. quitt automatically calculates the premiums within the framework of the monthly payroll.

Monthly pay slip and annual wage statement

Based on your individual details, quitt will provide you with a correct pay slip and an overview of the employer costs in your account for each employment.

Based on the gross salary, the mandatory social contributions AHV, IV, EO, ALV and FAK are calculated. If your employee is subject to withholding tax or is registered with the pension fund Valitas Compacta, withholding tax rates and saving contributions are also shown on the pay slip.

In addition, the insurance premiums for accident insurance, possibly non-occupational accident insurance and selected complementary insurances are included in your pay slip. If insurance benefits (daily allowances), family supplements or maternity compensation are paid out, these payments are taken into account by quitt in the corresponding pay slips.

The wage statement certifies the employee’s paid salary as well as all wage deductions, saving contributions and possible expenses. The form can be downloaded by employers in the client area and must be submitted by the employee with the annual tax declaration.
