Key legal question
Whether Art. 42 LMV 2005/6 requiring three years on Swiss construction sites is compatible with the FZA.
Extracted holding
The requirement is indirectly discriminatory under the FZA and cannot be applied to exclude equivalent work experience on foreign construction sites.
Extracted reasoning
Although neutral on its face, the rule affects in the great majority of cases foreign nationals who trained abroad; no objective justification was shown.
