Neuchâtel, 19 April 2018 (FSO) - In 2017, 8.0% of salaried employees had a fixed-term contract compared with 6.7% in 2010. Almost a quarter of salaried employees aged between 15 and 24 years (22.7%) had an employment contract of this type, with internships (40.9%) accounting for a large share of this amount. 1.3% of salaried employees were employed and paid by a temporary employment agency. A far larger share of salaried employees (6.0%) found their jobs through a private employment agency but were paid by the company for which they worked. These are some of the results of the Swiss Labour Force Survey (SLFS).
