Any ideas, where or whom can I contact for more information?
My kid is 15 and wants a part time job in Switzerland. We live on the French side near Basel, and she would like a Saturday job. This is a great thing, but it feels like I am stepping on a land mine in terms of what is allowed or not.
Interesting question. I imagine that it would be much easier to get a part-time job in France. Or go to Migros or Coop and ask to speak to HR/manager and ask them. What nationality is your kid?
This Swiss Federal government brochure might be useful. It's available in the three official languages:
This document is about Swiss/resident children working in Switzerland and does not apply to non Swiss/non residents.
Check what is available for seasonal workers? That might be the exception for non residents. However, no idea if that is also valid for 15 year olds.
