The Minister of Labour, Marc Spautz, met with representatives of the ABBL and the ACA for an exchange of views focused on the current challenges facing the labour market. The meeting formed part of an ongoing dialogue with social and economic partners and follows earlier discussions on labour law modernisation and competitiveness.
Summary
Key issues: telework, collective agreements and pay transparency
Discussions centred on several important dossiers, including remote work arrangements, collective agreements and pay transparency.
These topics reflect the evolving nature of work in Luxembourg and underline the importance of maintaining a regular and constructive dialogue between public authorities and representatives of the economic and social spheres.
For the financial and insurance sectors, clarity, predictability and flexibility in the labour framework remain essential in order to sustain competitiveness and ensure long-term attractiveness.
A shared commitment to dialogue
The ABBL delegation was composed of:
- Jerry Grbic, CEO, ABBL
- Myriam Sibenaler, Head of Human Resources, ABBL
- Elisabeth Frnassen, Legal Adviser, ABBL
The ACA was represented by:

- Christian Strasser, CEO, Lalux Assurances
- Lea Zanda, Legal and Tax Adviser, ACA
The exchange reaffirmed the shared commitment to continuing structured discussions on labour market developments in a context marked by economic transformation, talent mobility and European regulatory evolution.
Maintaining Luxembourg’s attractiveness as a financial centre depends not only on regulatory and fiscal stability, but also on a modern and balanced employment framework that reflects economic realities while preserving social dialogue.
