# Swiss HR Easy

> The HR platform built for Swiss employment law — recruitment, employee lifecycle, time, payroll, and everything in between.

Swiss HR Easy is a comprehensive HR platform for Swiss organizations. It covers the
full arc of employment: attracting and hiring people, bringing them on board, running
time and absence, paying them correctly under Swiss law, supporting their development,
and — when the time comes — parting well.

It is deployed **single-tenant**: every customer gets their own Azure environment
(App Service, PostgreSQL, Blob Storage, Key Vault). Your data never shares a database
with another organization.
