Our employees receive 5 weeks' vacation - i.e. 25 vacation days. From their 50th birthday, this becomes 28 vacation days and from the age of 60, 32 vacation days.

In addition to the regular vacation entitlement, the USB also offers the popular flex days: all employees receive an additional five flexible vacation days per year, which they can either redeem annually or accumulate over a maximum of five years. This means that nothing stands in the way of a longer dream trip or a sabbatical!

Our two staff restaurants provide refined and balanced meals for our employees. The kitchen team is always coming up with new ideas, bringing variety to the menu. Naturally, employees receive reduced prices on food and drinks.

Our offer also includes our popular Café Centrino, which is located directly next to the hospital garden and invites you to sit outside in summer. The garden, our green oasis, is big enough for a walk during lunch break or for a relaxing break on one of its many benches.

Yoga before work or Pilates during your lunch break? How about Zumba to hot rhythms? The range of sports and exercise options at the USB is extensive and has something to suit everyone. If you like, you can visit our in-house gym or join one of the university hospital sports clubs, where you can play football, volleyball or squash.

In addition to sport and exercise, we also offer other helpful services for employee health: relaxation programs, a staff medical service and ergonomic consultations are also available if required.

Here you will find the best living and working conditions and are right in the middle of the life science hotspot of Northwestern Switzerland every day. You can also walk to Basel's old town, the popular banks of the Rhine or one of the city's many green parks in five minutes.
