Civil servants in Luxembourg are being offered teleworking options

After an initial review of a pilot project offering the Grand Duchy’s civil servants the option of teleworking one day a week, the Ministry of the Civil Service and Administrative Reform has acknowledged that staff have shown little interest and need to be encouraged, in particular, owing to an ever-widening gap with the private sector. The Ministry’s departments have stated that 2/3 of staff are eligible and that incentive training courses will be rolled out in an attempt to improve results.
