1920 Swiss referendums

Five referendums were held in Switzerland during 1920. The first three were held on 21 March on a federal law on regulating employment contracts, a ban on creating gambling establishments and a counterproposal to the ban. The fourth was held on 16 May on membership of the League of Nations (of which Switzerland had become a founding member the previous year), whilst the fifth was held on 31 October on a federal law on working times on railways and other transport services. Three of the five referendums, on the ban on gambling establishments, League of Nations membership and the law on working times, were passed.
