Swiss Turkish Employment Law Consultancy

Swiss Turkish Employment Law Consultancy (Schweizer Arbeitsrecht Beratung für Türken) plays a crucial role for Turkish citizens who live or plan to work in Switzerland and need legal protection regarding their employment rights. Switzerland has a highly developed labor law system that strongly safeguards employee rights. However, living in a foreign country often creates difficulties due to language barriers and complex legal procedures, making it challenging for individuals to fully protect their rights. At this point, working with a professional team that can communicate in Turkish and has expertise in both Swiss and Turkish law becomes essential.

Employee Rights and Legal Protection in Switzerland

Swiss employment law protects workers in a wide range of matters including employment contracts, overtime pay, annual leave rights, wage claims, workplace accidents, mobbing, discrimination, and unlawful termination. Receiving professional legal support in disputes between employer and employee is critical to prevent loss of rights.

Turkius Law & Mediation & IP Services provides comprehensive and solution-oriented employment law consultancy through its offices in Zurich, St. Gallen, and Fribourg, specifically tailored to the legal needs of Turkish workers in Switzerland. We also offer reliable legal assistance for Turkish individuals relocating to Switzerland for professional employment.

Expert Support in Employment Disputes

Turkish citizens working in Switzerland may face challenges understanding or asserting their rights when conflicts arise with employers. If not properly managed, issues such as breach of contract, unpaid overtime, workplace pressure, and mobbing may lead to serious and irreversible consequences.

Unlawful termination and compensation claims

Invalid termination cases in Switzerland can result in significant legal consequences. Ensuring timely objections and legal action requires professional guidance.

Review and preparation of employment contracts

It is common for foreign workers to misunderstand contract terms due to language barriers. Therefore, having contractual provisions fully explained in Turkish before signing is essential.

Mobbing and discrimination complaint procedures

In cases of psychological harassment or discrimination based on national origin, the management of documentation and legal evidence must be carried out by an expert attorney.
