01 · Background

Who Suva is.

Historical Background
Suva, the Swiss National Accident Insurance Fund, was established in 1918 and operates as a self-supporting entity under public law. Initially pursuing business-friendly policies, the institution's direction saw increased influence from social democrats and trade unions during the economic crisis of the interwar period.
Source of Capital
As a public-sector insurer, Suva's capital is derived from the premiums for compulsory accident insurance paid by Swiss companies and their employees. The organization is responsible for insuring approximately half of all employees in Switzerland against both occupational and non-occupational accidents and illnesses.
