On April 1, 2020, Vincent Ducrot assumed the role of CEO of SBB. After that, things calmed down around his predecessor, Andreas Meyer. Now the former boss reported on Facebook, where it was loud “Sunday view” wrote: “Yesterday was my last day under the SBB contract. Today, October 1, 2020, is my ‹Independence Day› ”.
In April, SBB said that Meyer had resigned from his post “at the end of March”. When asked by the newspaper, Meyer explains: “It was agreed with SBB in September 2019 that the employment relationship would end at the end of September 2020. With the announcement of his resignation, the official search for a successor could begin.”
“The wages are part of the contract”
It was not clear when a suitable person would be available and if he needed an induction program. “Therefore, it was agreed that it would be available until the end of September 2020.” When asked by “Sonntagsblick” if he continued to receive the full CEO salary during this time, Meyer did not respond.
An SBB spokesperson, on the other hand, told the newspaper: “Andreas Meyer announced his resignation in September 2019. His notice period is contractually regulated for one year. Therefore, his contract was extended until the end of September 2020. Salaries are part of the contract. “
“Available at any time”
