The Swiss Bank Employees’ Association and the Swiss Association of Com- mercial Employees together appoint two members and one deputy, as does the Employers Association of Banks in Switzerland. The members of the concilia- tion board also elect the chairperson and deputy chairperson. The conciliation board submits a mediation proposal. The provisions relating to the conciliation proceedings of the Swiss Federal law governing the Federal Conciliation Office (Arts. 3 and 4) apply mutatis mutandis.
