On Tuesday 2 December 2025, the Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce presented 34 recommendations aimed at strengthening talent attraction and retention in the Grand Duchy.
According to estimates from the General Inspectorate of Social Security (IGSS), Luxembourg will need 335,000 new hires across all sectors by 2040: 180,000 to replace retirees and 155,000 to fill newly created positions. The Chamber of Commerce thus highlighted a major challenge: a persistent talent shortage that weakens the performance and dynamism of the economy and threatens the competitiveness of businesses. Without an ambitious strategy to attract, retain and develop skills, Luxembourg risks a continued slowdown in its growth.
