This study examines the spread of employee participation in profits and capital in Switzerland and the models of participation systems. It also examines how different wage models are assessed by employees.
Among other things, the study should provide representative information on the proportion of companies in Switzerland whose employees participate directly in profits or capital, how high this financial participation is, how and at what time intervals the participation is distributed, who finances the income tax and the social security of the participations and where companies see the decisive advantages and obstacles to employee profit or capital participation.
For this purpose, 3,000 companies throughout Switzerland are surveyed in writing. The experiences and opinions of the managers of companies are collected.
A second survey of salaried employees will be carried out to broaden the picture of the opinions of managers with the perspective of employees. For this purpose, 1000 people in German-speaking Switzerland will be interviewed by telephone. The study takes into account the data of salaried employees. The structure of the questions in the telephone survey is largely based on the company survey, so that comparisons can be made between the two studies. The study provides information on the distribution and structuring of wage forms in Switzerland. The focus is on the following questions:
- How do employees in Switzerland rate performance-related pay? What is their attitude towards profit-sharing?
- What effect do incentive wages and profit-sharing have on employees?
- Are employees who are remunerated according to performance or success more satisfied employees?

The Federal Statistical Office (FSO) is responsible for developing statistics and indicators on the information society within the framework of the Federal Coordination Group on the Information Society (ISCC). As there is hardly any representative data on the infrastructure and use of information and communication technologies (ICT) throughout Switzerland in the education sector - especially in primary schools - any gaps in data and information should be closed when developing indicators. The Institute for Interdisciplinary Economic and Social Research (IWS) of the University of Applied Sciences Solothurn Northwestern Switzerland has been commissioned to assess this ICT infrastructure and develop corresponding indicators.
The study aims at the following aspects:
- Complete overview of previous surveys on the dissemination of information and communication technologies at primary schools in Switzerland
- Identification of data and information gaps on ICT infrastructure in primary schools in Switzerland
- Identification of key indicators of the ICT infrastructure
- If necessary to close existing data and information gaps, a representative nationwide survey on computer density, type, age and location of computers and financial investments, among other things.
- A meta-analysis based on the data and information researched and collected
- Selection and development of indicators for ICT infrastructure in primary schools in Switzerland
