Petitions to the Chamber of Deputies

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 : 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 : Demander au Gouvernement et à la Chambre des Députés de mettre en place un mécanisme de complément différentiel pour l'allocation de naissance en faveur des travailleurs frontaliers affiliés au régime luxembourgeois de sécurité sociale. Lorsqu'un travailleur frontalier résidant dans un pays voisin bénéficie, dans son pays de résidence, d'une allocation ou prime de naissance inférieure au montant prévu au Luxembourg, le Luxembourg devrait pouvoir verser la différence, dans la limite du montant de l'allocation de naissance luxembourgeoise et sans double paiement. L'objectif est d'assurer une plus grande équité entre les familles dont l'un des parents travaille et est affilié au Luxembourg, indépendamment du pays de résidence de la famille.
