Q:

Husband to apply Schengen business visa, can he apply for his wife's visa? 

Pakistani spouse having UAE residence permit, where husband is going to apply for Schengen business visa, has all required documents (invitation from his Swiss company, hotel booking, travel tickets, insurance).  Can he apply for his wife visit visa at same time in Swiss VFS?  The husband would be sponsor (for his wife, he will show bank statement, travel insurance, return tickets, invitation letter from husband confirming that he will be responsible for all expenses)?  
Is this proper way if husband traveling on business visa to Switzerland and wants to take his wife with him?  If not, can you please help to guide? 

A:

Yes, this is ok as long as he can submit the required documents (bank statement, employer letter etc.).  It's common for people to take their families on their business trips (but on tourists visas).  Usually a tourist Schengen visa does not require you to show up at the embassy (personal experience).
