No. Clino isn't a staffing or cleaning agency. You've already found someone. Clino guides you through employing them correctly: employment contract, payroll, insurance and AHV registration. Who you hire is entirely up to you.

In almost every case: yes. In Switzerland, every private employer is legally required to register domestic workers with the AHV (social insurance) and insure them against accidents. (Merkblatt 2.06) There is one small exception: people under 25 who earn less than CHF 750 per year. Clino checks this automatically during the process.

For a typical housekeeper (3 hours per week, CHF 30/h), you pay CHF 19.90 per month with us (flat fee) instead of CHF 43.76 with Quitt Start or CHF 33.60 with Quitt Comfort. The social contributions themselves remain identical. The state calculates those, not us. Detailed comparison with calculator →

Without registration, the Ersatzkasse UVG pays and charges you as the employer substitute premiums (Art. 95 UVG).
