Working for Switzerland   

Seven departments, the Federal Chancellery and around 70 administrative units make up the Federal Administration. With around 38,000 employees, it is one of the largest employers in Switzerland.

People from all regions of the country work in the Federal Administration units and, at the same time, the Federal Administration has offices throughout Switzerland. Plurilingualism and cultural diversity are therefore highly valued.

The tasks of the Federal Administration are as varied as Switzerland itself. Employees use their specialist knowledge and experience to perform important governmental functions. These involve projects that often shape Switzerland for several generations. This means that the employees make an important contribution to ensuring that the country runs smoothly. 

As an employer, the Federal Administration supports its employees' individual lifestyles with flexible working models and promotes their personal development with practical training and continuing professional development.
