Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the employer was entitled to short-time work compensation for the period 1 May to 30 September 2010.
Decisione estratta
No entitlement existed because the asserted currency-related revenue decline did not amount to an exceptional, compensable loss of work outside normal business risk.
Motivazione estratta
For the relevant period, euro/franc fluctuations of about 10% remained within the normal business risk of an export-oriented company. The SECO guidance of September 2011 concerned a later and more severe currency situation and did not govern the earlier period. No other non-risk business reason was shown.
