salary of domestic workers
Domestic workers (child minders, house helpers, assistants for the elderly, etc.) are salaried by families who call on our services. They receive a salary at the end of each month, which depends on the number of working hours defined contractually. Overtime must be added to the salary or compensated by leave of the same duration.
The minimum wage for a domestic employee is regulated by the standard domestic economy contracts of the canton of residence of the family/employer.
In any case, we recommend paying your employee at least CHF 25.- in the canton of Geneva.
It should be noted that, in estimating your costs in hiring a domestic employee, you will have to add employer charges, i.e. approximately 10 to 15% of the gross salary.
