Overview |
Between 1931 to 2002, Switzerland issued some six million seasonal residence permits, known as "A" permits, to immigrant workers. This status carried drastic rules, such as a ban on family reunification and a stay in Switzerland limited to nine months a year. In open letters, former seasonal workers and their children recount the impact this system had on their lives. |

Overview |
De 1931 à 2002, la Suisse a délivré quelque six millions d’autorisations de séjour saisonnier à des travailleurs immigrés. Ce statut leur interdisait de venir en Suisse avec leur famille. Dans une série de lettres ouvertes, d’anciens saisonniers partagent leurs premières expériences de vie à Genève et l’effet que ce statut a eu sur leur histoire familiale. |
