CERTIFIED PERSONNES DE CONFIANCE EN ENTREPRISE (PCE)
TRUSTED
WORKPLACE
SUPPORT
Independent, confidential English-speaking PCE services helping multinational organisations across Swiss Romande meet their duty of care to their employees.
A Legal Responsibility…
Swiss employers have a legal duty to protect employees’ physical and psychological health, dignity, and personal integrity (Art. 328 CO; Labour Act; OLT 3).
An independent PCE service is one of the most accessible and practical measures employers can implement to help fulfil that obligation.
…and an Opportunity
TrustLine PCE Partners complements your internal HR resources with an independent, certified point of contact that employees trust. Operating beyond company reporting lines and meeting away from company premises, every conversation is handled with complete discretion and protected by strict professional confidentiality.
It’s an opportunity to foster a workplace culture where employees feel safe raising concerns early—supporting respectful dialog and employee wellbeing while reducing the risks of formal grievances, absenteeism, workplace conflict, or disruptive turnover.
Three Levels of Workplace Intervention
Supporting organizations and employees through prevention, early support, and resolution when workplace challenges arise to minimze the impact of workplace challenges.
Prevention
Workshops, awareness sessions, and practical tools that help organisations reduce psychosocial risk and build a respectful workplace culture.
Early Support
Confidential consultations that provide employees with a safe space to discuss concerns, explore options, and seek support before issues escalate.
Resolution & Recovery
Support for conflict resolution, return-to-work situations, and constructive dialogue – always respecting employee autonomy and confidentiality.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I use an external PCE instead of relying on HR?
An external PCE complements your HR team by providing an independent, impartial resource outside company reporting lines. Employees are often more willing to speak openly to someone who is not involved in workplace dynamics, while HR and managers can focus on resolving issues and supporting the wider organisation.
When should an organisation appoint a PCE?
A PCE provides employees with an independent, confidential point of contact for concerns related to psychosocial risks, workplace relationships, harassment, discrimination, stress, or other sensitive issues. Whether your organisation is meeting a legal requirement or strengthening its prevention strategy, a PCE helps employees seek support early—before issues escalate.
