The Employment Agreement For Teachers is a specialized contract designed for educational institutions operating within the Swiss legal framework. It serves as a crucial document for establishing the employment relationship between educational institutions and teaching professionals, whether in public or private settings. This agreement is particularly important in Switzerland, where education is primarily regulated at the cantonal level while still adhering to federal employment laws. The document addresses specific aspects of teaching roles including classroom responsibilities, administrative duties, professional development requirements, and student interaction protocols. It incorporates necessary provisions from both federal Swiss employment law and relevant cantonal education regulations, making it suitable for various educational settings from primary schools to universities. The agreement should be used when hiring any teaching professional in Switzerland, ensuring proper documentation of terms, conditions, and expectations while protecting both the institution's and teacher's interests.
