Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Equine Health
  • Professional Practice

Background:

  • A study surveyed 30 equine veterinarians with less than five years of experience regarding their working conditions.
  • Participants reported annual gross wages ranging from CHF 36,400 to CHF 91,500.
  • Working hours varied significantly, from 42 to 93 hours per week.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the professional satisfaction, salary, and working hours of early-career equine veterinarians.
  • To compare current wages and working conditions against Swiss Veterinary Association (GST) recommendations.
  • To identify key areas of dissatisfaction among young professionals in equine veterinary practice.

Main Methods:

  • Phone interviews were conducted with 30 equine veterinarians.
  • Data collected included working hours, salary, and job satisfaction levels.
  • Wages were compared to the Swiss Veterinary Association (GST) salary recommendations.

Main Results:

  • 13% reported moderate job satisfaction; the rest were satisfied to highly satisfied.
  • 60% were dissatisfied with their wages, with only 5 out of 27 meeting GST recommendations.
  • 16 veterinarians worked over the legal maximum of 50 hours/week; part-time vets worked more hours than full-time vets.
  • Universities paid the lowest wages.

Conclusions:

  • Early-career equine veterinarians experience high job satisfaction but significant wage dissatisfaction.
  • Working hours frequently exceed legal limits and recommendations, impacting work-life balance.
  • Current salary structures, particularly at universities, are inadequate and misaligned with professional standards.
