It's absurd that you can actually waive any of your legal rights... Employment laws in Switzerland allow some contractual issues to be freely set, some can only be changed to the employees advantage and some cannot be changed at all. For example : Mandatory vacation by law is 4 weeks (20 days). A contract can stipulate 5 weeks vacation, but agreeing on three weeks is illegal. Despite the fact that UBS is a Swiss bank trying to sneak an arbitration clause into a Swiss employment contract would be laughed out of court.
