Personnel Policy

Our success is based on the performance and motivation of our staff.

We therefore strive to create a general framework that will provide them with the greatest encouragement and the most satisfaction in their work.



Ambitious People meet a Friendly Workspace

Since 2016 we have been awarded the certificate «Friendly Work Space®». This quality label issued by Health Promotion Switzerland rewards institutions, which have integrated occupational health management in their corporate strategy and promote health and well-being of all employees with appropriate measures.

HRS4R - Human Resource Strategy for Researchers

PSI commits itself to the principles of the European initiative Human Resource Strategy for Researchers of the European Commission and carries the label „HR Excellence in Research“ since 2016. This award reflects our commitment to achieve fair and transparent recruitment and appraisal procedures as well as good employment conditions.
