Create an FVE salary declaration

Construction companies in French-speaking Switzerland must submit a monthly salary declaration to the FVE (Fédération vaudoise des entrepreneurs). To create this monthly salary declaration correctly with the FVE - Salary Declaration report, various data such as salary classes and salary types must be assigned. There's no actual standard setting, because the salary classes and salary types can differ from company to company. This report isn't part of the ELM transmission process.

Prerequisites

  • Salary entries exist for the month to be analyzed.
  • The salary classes and salary types required by the report are known.

Define report filters

  1. Open FVE - Salary Declaration.

  2. If needed, filter by Employee No., Department, or Allocation Group.

  3. Enter the salary class filters for:

    • operational staff;
    • employees;
    • apprentices in construction.

  4. Enter the required salary type filters. The request page includes categories for monthly salary, bonuses, EO daily allowances, BVG, and other industry-specific contributions.

  5. Set Date de fin de mois. SwissSalary sets the date to the last day of the month and includes salary entries from that month.

  6. Check the percentages for the reported categories.

    The fields on the request page have fixed French captions. They mean the following:

    Date de fin de mois Month-end date of the month to be analyzed.

Generate FVE output

  1. Check the report: Choose the Send to... option and then PDF Document. This keeps the filters.
  2. Check employees, payroll totals, categories, and percentages.
  3. Correct inaccurate salary class or salary type filters and create the report again.

Reconcile the result

Reconcile the output with the posted salary entries for the selected month. In particular, check whether the salary types used correspond to the specified report categories. The FVE report isn't linked to Declare Salary or Salary Declaration.

Good to know

  • When you submit the FVE salary declaration, observe the requirements defined by the FVE (deadlines, etc.). They're independent of ELM salary declarations.
  • The settings on the Tax Administration Regulations, employee financial interests, and expatriate rulings tabs have no effect on this report.
  • If you set Date de fin de mois or the salary type filters incorrectly, totals don't match and you risk corrections from the authority.
  • If you release the output without reconciling it with posted monthly salary entries, declared amounts can differ from the paid salary.
