Petitions to the Chamber of Deputies

OBJECT : Introduce legislation requiring employers in Luxembourg to provide specific, written and factual reasons for rejecting job applicants. The legislation should establish the following obligations: Specific feedback: Identify the professional skills, qualifications, experience or assessment results decisive in the rejection. Generic explanations must not be considered sufficient. Clear justification: Distinguish between candidates who fail to meet essential requirements and qualified candidates rejected in favour of another applicant, specifying the decisive selection criteria. Documented selection criteria: Establish selection criteria before evaluating candidates and document recruitment decisions. Record retention: Retain recruitment assessments and decisions for a legally defined period, in compliance with data protection legislation. Independent review: Allow candidates to request an independent examination where reasonable grounds exist to suspect discrimination, favouritism or other irregularities. Enforcement: Establish reasonable deadlines for providing feedback, effective oversight mechanisms and proportionate sanctions for non-compliance. The required level of detail should reflect the stage reached in the recruitment process.

OBJECT : We ask the Chamber of Deputies to reject the increase of the holding period from six to twelve months (article 99bis of the income tax law) announced with the 2027 budget, and to keep the current six-month rule.

OBJECT : La présente pétition demande que toute personne résidant au Luxembourg ayant exercé une activité professionnelle et cotisé à la sécurité sociale puisse continuer à bénéficier de l'assurance maladie après la fin de son emploi, même lorsqu'elle ne remplit pas les conditions pour bénéficier des indemnités de chômage. La perte d'un emploi ne devrait pas entraîner la perte de la couverture maladie pour une personne qui a travaillé et participé au financement du système de sécurité sociale. Il est demandé de mettre en place un maintien automatique de l'affiliation à l'assurance maladie pour les personnes sans emploi qui restent inscrites comme demandeurs d'emploi et recherchent activement un nouvel emploi, indépendamment de leur droit ou non aux indemnités de chômage.
