About the Flag

VPOD (Schweizerischer Verband des Personals öffentlicher Dienste)
SSP (Syndicat des services publics)
(= Trade Union of Public Service Personnel)

The VPOD/SSP is a Swiss trade union for employees in the public service; it was founded in 1905 and adopted the current name in 1924. The VPOD/SSP has about 35,000 members and is part of the SGB/USS federation of trade unions.

The current logo shows a white wave-like design, over the abbreviations in two languages in lower-case letters; the flag is red with the logo [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12].

The former flag (e.g. used in 1994) was red with the old logo [13,14]; this consisted of a rope looking like a post-horn, also in white over the abbreviations in two languages.
