A Spanish housekeeper alleges significant wage theft while working at a four-star hotel in Zürich, Switzerland. She claims she was paid for only 40 hours of work despite consistently working 70-hour weeks over a two-week period. The housekeeper accuses the hotel of maintaining a “parallel accounting system” to suppress actual hours worked. She further alleges pressure is placed on foreign employees and describes extremely challenging working conditions. The case highlights potential labor exploitation practices within the Swiss hospitality sector, targeting vulnerable foreign workers. Details regarding the specific hotel company are currently withheld. Further investigation is needed to verify the claims and assess the extent of similar cases.
