Why this page?

A small step that helps you both

In Switzerland, household help is registered from the first hour worked. Most people don't realise how quick and worthwhile that has become.

Talking about employment isn't always easy.

That's why she sent you this page, so everything is explained clearly.

No blame here, most households simply never knew how easy it has become. Clino does the heavy lifting: add a few details, and the contract, payslips and AHV registration are created for you.

Good to know

Three things most people miss

Registration is required

In Switzerland, household workers must be registered with AHV from the very first hour. The simplified procedure makes it effortless.

Costs are fairly split

Social contributions (around 5% of gross pay) are shared 50/50. Her take-home pay barely changes.

Tax deductible

Employer contributions and the Clino fee can be declared as deductible expenses on your tax return.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. In Switzerland, every employer must register household help with AHV, even for just a few hours a week. The simplified procedure makes it easy.

That can happen. In that case, you can apply for an AHV number at the compensation office. Clino helps you with this.

Your cleaner receives a payslip showing her net wage and social contributions. She does not see the Clino fee.

No. The roughly 5% social contributions are shared equally, so her take-home pay barely moves.

You can end the employment at any time and cancel your Clino subscription. No minimum contract period.
