How high is the absenteeism rate here in Luxembourg?

The absenteeism rate is rising in many European countries. DP MPs André Bauler and Carole Hartmann asked the responsible ministers how absenteeism has developed in Luxembourg over the last 10 years, what the explanations for absenteeism are and what is currently being done about it.

Question

« Depuis 2014, le nombre de jours d’absence au travail est passé en France de 43 millions à 67 millions, soit une hausse de quelque 80%. Une évolution similaire a été constatée dans d’autres pays européens, tels l’Allemagne qui enregistre, elle aussi, une croissance tangible des taux d’absentéisme. 

Voilà pourquoi nous aimerions poser les questions suivantes à Madame la Ministre de la Santé et de la Sécurité sociale et à Monsieur le Ministre du Travail :

  • Quelle a été l’évolution du nombre de jours d’absence au travail au Grand-Duché de Luxembourg depuis l’an 2014 ?
  • Quelles ont été les raisons qui expliquent les absences les plus diverses ?
  • Dans combien de cas les services compétents ont-ils pu constater des abus en la matière ? Combien de jours de travail ces abus représentent-ils ?
  • Autour de quels instruments la lutte contre l’absentéisme injustifié et répétitif est-elle organisée actuellement ? Quels instruments de prévention ont été mis en place pour pallier ce phénomène ? »
