To Facebook or not? That is the question in Payerne
Bern, Switzerland (GenevaLunch) – Job-seekers in Switzerland, in particular the international population of workers, often have few clues about what standard salaries are, since companies are not allowed to advertise specific job salaries, for privacy reasons. TSR/RSR have provided a useful service by posting a table of average salaries by industry. The low end of the scale is the hotel business, with an average of CHF4,000 per month and at the top is banking and finance, with an average monthly income of CHF8,500.
The table is based on Swiss federal statistics for 2008. It also shows percentage increases in salaries for 2010 that have been announced by six of the largest employers, the industries that pay the least and the change in salaries overall for the past 30 years.
