Social welfare in Luxembourg

Luxembourg has an extensive welfare system. It comprises social security, health, and pension funds.[1] The labour market is highly regulated, and Luxembourg is a corporatist welfare state.[2] Enrollment is mandatory in one of the welfare schemes for any employed person.[3] Luxembourg's social security system is the Centre Commun de la Securite Sociale (CCSS). Both employees and employers make contributions to the fund at a rate of 25% of total salary, which cannot eclipse more than five times the minimum wage. Social spending accounts for 21.9% of GDP.[4]
