The different Covid rules in place in France and Switzerland are causing a headache for cross border workers – which rules to follow?
There are no Covid restrictions in Switzerland now – but in France, anyone testing positive has to isolate for between 7 and 10 days.
But which rule does a cross border worker follow?
For the Federation of Suisse Romande Businesses, the situation is clear – you’re bound by the country of residence.
So, for those living in France, a positive test means you have to stay home.
But it doesn’t necessarily mean that’s time off work. If a positive person is symptom free and they can work from home, then they should.
A Swiss company can still ask for a medical certificate if the person wants to be paid, according to the local business federation.
