Questione giuridica chiave
Whether Art. 325 OR applies to the salary relationship of a federal employee under the BPG.
Decisione estratta
Yes. The Federal Personnel Act incorporates the relevant provisions of the Code of Obligations unless special federal rules provide otherwise, and Art. 325(2) OR is absolutely mandatory.
Motivazione estratta
The BPG aims to align federal employment law with private employment law; no contrary public-law rule was shown. Under Art. 361(1) OR, Art. 325(2) OR cannot be derogated from to the employee's benefit.
