What are social elections?

Social elections take place every five years in Luxembourg and provide an opportunity for workers to elect the staff delegation members within their own company and members of the Chamber of Employees (Chamber des salaries) on a national level. Unlike the national and communal elections, social elections are open to all people working in Luxembourg.

The vote is conducted via post. Click here to find out more.
