How strict are inspections in Glarus?

With Clino you're correctly registered in minutes — registration, insurance and payroll included.
What if I've never registered my cleaner?
Common situation. Sozialversicherungen Glarus accepts backdated registrations, far cheaper than getting caught.
Up to 5 years backdated
Declare wages from the last 5 years. Sozialversicherungen Glarus issues one consolidated statement.
Self-declaration avoids the fine
Self-report and you pay only the contributions. Get caught and you risk up to CHF 10,000 (BGSA) plus interest.
Inspections are real
The Glarus undeclared-work inspectorate randomly audits private households, more so since 2024.
