What we manage

Salary calculations, payslips, social charges, salary certificates, insurance notifications, absences, allowances and HR coordination.

We account for cantonal specifics, permits, work rates and cross-border situations when the matter requires it.

Monthly process

We define a variable collection date, change control, client validation and clear transmission of payments or accounting entries.

Deliverables are structured so management, employees and accounting can understand them.

Control points

Costs depend on employee count, change frequency, insurance setup, permits and analytical reporting needs.

Confidentiality and regularity come first: sensitive data is limited to the necessary contacts.

Anonymous payroll case studies

Representative payroll and Swiss social-charge situations where operational discipline mattered as much as calculation accuracy.

These situations are anonymized and representative. Outcomes always depend on context, facts, and timing.

How we stabilized a delayed payroll transition for a 25-person SME

A company had changed providers mid-cycle and inherited inconsistent payroll inputs, missing cutoffs, and weak monthly controls. We rebuilt the payroll calendar, aligned HR and finance responsibilities, and normalized the evidence needed for recurring runs and year-end declarations.

Result: the client regained a predictable monthly payroll process and reduced the operational risk around social charges and source-tax submissions.

How we structured Swiss payroll for a company hiring across borders

A management team was hiring employees with mixed residency patterns and needed clarity on source tax, family allowances, pension onboarding, and employer-side reporting. We clarified the onboarding sequence and standardized the recurring payroll controls.

Result: payroll became easier to operate, and the company avoided running each new hire as a separate exception case.

How we cleaned up swissdec reporting after inconsistent prior filings

A business had payroll outputs that no longer matched the underlying employee and insurance data. We reconciled the payroll logic, reviewed prior inconsistencies, and rebuilt the file structure used for annual declarations and insurer exchanges.

Result: the company returned to a more defensible payroll file with clearer audit trails and fewer manual fixes before deadlines.
