Holy shit that’s low. So to get even just 8 weeks you need to have worked there for 5 years. And this from a rich company.
I work for a small company of 150 people. I’ve got 3 months of notice period in my contract, though it’s going both ways. This protection started immediately after my trial period ended, which was also 3 months long. That’s considered normal here in Switzerland for office jobs. The minimum by law after your first year of employment would be 2 months.
Just for reference, in the European context the Swiss labour laws are considered quite weak. Market liberalism is comparatively strong here.
