You are the employer, Helpore helps with the administration

Anyone who cleans, cares or cooks in your home for pay is your employee under Swiss law, from the first franc. In Hottingen that means AHV, IV, EO and ALV contributions, mandatory accident insurance, and the agreed terms in writing for your Helper. With Helpore Admin, Helpore prepares a contract if you want one, takes out the accident insurance in your household's name, produces the monthly payslip and, under your signed power of attorney, pays the contributions in your name from your monthly payment. With Helpore Admin Light, Helpore calculates the wage and the contributions and prepares the payslips and the registration pack; you file them and pay directly yourself. You keep the person you chose.
