Swiss businesses and unions are mobilizing against an upcoming referendum proposed by the hard-right Swiss People's Party (SVP) to cap immigration, fearing severe negative impacts on employment and crucial trade relations with the European Union. Opponents, including major employers and unions, label it a "chaos initiative," warning it could jeopardize Switzerland's prosperity due to the economy's heavy reliance on foreign labor and existing EU agreements. Despite the SVP's proposed quotas, critics argue they are insufficient and risk weakening labor protections, leading to potential job losses and wage dumping.
