Where is the study on the “Plan d’Organisation du Travail”?

The study on the reduction of working time refers to the results of the study on the “Plan d'Organisation du Travail” - POT for short - which was introduced by law in December 2016. However, the results of the POT study have not yet been published. The DP MP Carole Hartmann has therefore asked the Minister of Labour, who commissioned this study, when the results will be presented.

Question

« En décembre 2016, des adaptations du droit du travail ont été effectuées en ce qui concerne l’organisation du travail. Avec l’introduction du “Plan d’organisation du travail” (POT), les entreprises ont eu la possibilité de définir des périodes de référence qui devaient permettre une plus grande flexibilité dans l’organisation du travail des salariés.

La loi de 2016 dispose que 5 ans après l’entrée en vigueur de la loi, un bilan intermédiaire des nouvelles dispositions doit être effectué. Le LISER a été chargé de cette étude par le ministère du Travail. Le projet a débuté le 23 novembre 2020 et s’est terminé le 31 décembre 2022.

La nouvelle étude du LISER sur la réduction du temps de travail se réfère précisément à l’étude sur le POT, mais aucun résultat de cette dernière n’a encore été publié officiellement.

Dans ce contexte, j’aimerais poser les questions suivantes à Monsieur le Ministre du Travail, de l’Emploi et de l’Économie sociale et solidaire :

  • Monsieur le Ministre, pour quelles raisons les résultats de l’étude POT n’ont-ils pas encore été publiés, alors que le LISER lui-même fait référence aux résultats de cette étude ? Quand peut-on s’attendre à une publication des résultats de l’étude POT ? »

How long are the waiting times at the “Travel Clinic”?

If you are travelling to tropical regions, you can get advice and be vaccinated against various diseases at the CHL’s “Travel Clinic”. However, the waiting times at this clinic are currently said to be quite long.
DP MPs Dr Gérard Schockmel and Gilles Baum have asked the Minister of Health how many patients have been seen at the “Travel Clinic” over the last ten years, how waiting times have developed over this period and whether it would not make sense to make it possible to book appointments online, as is the case with many other CHL services.

Medical referrals abroad

Since 1 June 2025, doctors have to fill out a new form if they want to send a patient abroad for treatment. The doctor must now indicate whether or not the services can be provided in Luxembourg within an ‘acceptable period’. If the doctor indicates that the services could actually be provided in Luxembourg, the referral request is automatically rejected.
DP MP Dr Gérard Schockmel has asked the Minister of Health whether the mere reduction to the ‘acceptable period’, without taking into account the quality of care, might not lead to unjustified rejections and whether the new form might not force doctors to provide false information in order to guarantee their patients the best possible care.
