Minister of Labour and Employment Dan Kersch met with representatives of UEL, student association representatives (ACEL and UNEL) as well as representatives of the Chamber of Employees, on multiple occasions to discuss the bill of law concerning internships in Luxembourg.

On Friday, all parties came to an agreement which will lead to a bill set to distinguish between two types of internships:

  • those which fall under a school curriculum and will be managed by a school establishment,
  • those which will be voluntary, outside of schooling and with the aims of acquiring professional experience.

The bill will also regulate the question of internship salaries for trainees, the duration of the internships and the guarantees given to interns.
