Introducing Living in Nyon’s newest sponsor: Numeriq

Let’s be honest, Swiss payroll isn’t exactly exciting apéro conversation. But for expats, freelancers, and international companies working in Switzerland, understanding how it works is essential… and often overwhelming. Social security, pension contributions, tax-at-source, accident cover, contracts, there’s a lot to get right, and even more that can go wrong.

That’s why we’re delighted to introduce Numeriq Payroll, our newest Living in Nyon sponsor and a company doing things a little differently. Based in Geneva, Numeriq specialises in making Swiss payroll simple, compliant, and stress-free, especially for independent contractors and foreign companies. The best part? They do it with a refreshingly human approach.

What is Swiss Payroll?

In Switzerland, employers are responsible for handling all sorts of contributions on behalf of employees: AVS (social security), pension (LPP), accident insurance (LAA), and taxes (if applicable). If you’re a contractor, or a company hiring one, it’s your job to get all of this right unless you can outsource to a payroll provider.

What Numeriq Offers

Numeriq operates as an Employer of Record (EOR), employing contractors on behalf of clients. This model ensures full compliance with Swiss labor laws, including social insurance, pensions, and taxes. Whether you're an individual contractor, a Swiss company, or a foreign firm, Numeriq provides a comprehensive payroll solution tailored to your needs.

Perks, People & Peace of Mind: The Numeriq Way

1. Premium Accident Insurance

In Switzerland, employers are required to provide accident insurance for employees working more than 8 hours per week. Numeriq goes a step further by ensuring that, in the event of an accident, you're entitled to a private hospital room, for more comfort during recovery.

2. Timely Payments

Cash flow is crucial, especially when clients have extended payment terms. Numeriq addresses this by ensuring that you receive your salary at the end of each month, regardless of when the client settles the invoice. This approach provides financial stability and peace of mind.

3. They handle the boring stuff for you

Numeriq takes care of all the paperwork contracts, insurance, tax deductions social charges so you can focus on doing your thing while they keep things running smoothly behind the scenes for you. You do the work while they do the paperwork.

4. Community Building

Being an independent contractor can sometimes feel isolating. Numeriq has built a sense of community among its employees by regular apéros and networking events, affectionately termed "Numeriqos". These gatherings offer opportunities to connect, share experiences, and build professional relationships.
