Questions about this listing
What salary does CSC Costruzioni SA offer for this role?
The original listing does not state a salary. Our estimate for this role and sector in Lugano is CHF 79'500 - 120'500 gross per year — an estimate, not a figure communicated by CSC Costruzioni SA. The calculator on this site converts a gross salary into your actual net take-home once cross-border tax and social contributions are applied.
Is this a full-time role, and what type of contract does CSC Costruzioni SA offer?
This listing is a full-time and internship position. The contract type shown here comes directly from the employer's original posting; always confirm exact hours, notice period and probation length with CSC Costruzioni SA during the application process, since these details can vary by role even within the same contract category.
Do I need the G permit to apply for this role in Ticino as an Italian cross-border worker?
Yes. For EU/EFTA citizens the G permit no longer depends on a border zone: you need residence in an EU/EFTA state, a Swiss contract and a return home at least once a week. The 20 km band matters for taxation, not for the permit. The Swiss employer files the G-permit application at the Ticino cantonal migration office after the contract is signed — first issuance takes 2-6 weeks. The permit lasts five years with an open-ended contract or one over a year, otherwise for the length of the contract.
