On Thursday 20 July, Luxembourg’s statistics bureau Statec published its new ranking of the country’s largest employers: while the CFL is still in the lead, Post has dropped to second place behind Amazon. Spuerkeess is no longer in the top 20, whereas Cargolux has made a comeback.

With 220 more jobs than the runner-up, the CFL Group is still Luxembourg’s biggest employer. However, it is no longer followed by Post, but by Amazon. According to Statec, the tech giant employs 4,570 people.

Spuerkeess has disappeared from the top 20. Cargolux is back: with 1,900 jobs, it is in 19th place and ranks above the Banque Internationale à Luxembourg (Bil).
