Client case study
Client/Industry: A major retail business company with globally over 28,000 employees.
Challenge: To ensure that frequent business travellers are identified before travelling to Switzerland and obtain the required work authorization in time.
Solution: Through an internal audit, workshops and webcast training, stakeholders were informed about relevant immigration requirements and the resulting assignment costs.
Outcome/impact: As a result of the internal communication the company had a clear understanding of the immigration requirements and assignment costs per employee. A process has been put in place to identify frequent business travellers before they travel to Switzerland, and pre-checks have been put in place to assess whether the planned work can also be performed remotely in the home country , to save cost and maintain immigration compliance.
