At the sectoral level

Group contracts

The Financial Service Union is the spokesperson for the negotiations of the following collective agreements:

  • The Collective Agreement for Bank Employees
  • The Collective Agreement for Insurance Employees
  • The Collective Agreement for Employees of the Medical-Surgical Fund
  • The Collective Agreement for Employees of Worldline Financial Services (Europe) SA.

These collective agreements set essential standards for employees in the financial sector, covering aspects such as wages, working hours, time off, professional training, occupational safety, and much more. They are the result of negotiations between workers’ and employers’ representatives, aimed at ensuring fair working conditions.

As a union, our commitment is to ensure that these collective agreements are beneficial to ALL workers in the financial sector and to ensure that they are properly enforced. We are actively working to maintain and improve the rights and benefits of employees in this vital sector of the Luxembourg economy.

The world of work is changing. But the importance of reliable and effective union representation remains the same.

While Luxembourg has experienced a large boom in the tertiary sector in recent decades, it is above all finance and services that have developed significantly over the past few years and are undergoing profound changes that will become even more pronounced with the digital transformation. As the country’s leading trade union, represented in all sectors of the Luxembourg economy, we have the experience and expertise to meet these challenges and to help shape the digital future of the world of work by putting the interests of employees first.
