This time, we can all vote

And we should all use this right. With over 600,000 voters – twice as many as for the parliamentary elections – the Chamber of employees (Chambre des salariés) election is the largest democratic election in Luxembourg. Everyone can vote: employees, apprentices, pensioners and job seekers, regardless of nationality, gender, place of residence or background.
It is an important opportunity to make a real difference. Every vote cast is a boost to a powerful community that stands up to employers and political decision-makers in defence of its interests.

The OGBL campaigns for joint decision-making at all levels, in companies and in the political arena, to secure equal rights and voting rights for all. Each one of us has a vote for the Chamber of Employees: let’s use it!

Together we can make a difference!

At a time where the conservative-liberal government is teaming up with the employers’ associations, while employees and their families are being hit by one crisis after another, it is more important than ever to strengthen the OGBL.

The OGBL is the only trade union with the strength and courage to stand up to attacks on the interests of employees and pensioners.

Difficult times lie ahead. The coalition government is unequivocal about its aims: promote the interests of capital owners, let the free market sort out the the big problems of the day, ignore the climate crisis, offer no solution to the housing crisis and, above all, further tighten the belts of workers and pensioners.

We must defend ourselves and stand up for our hard-won rights, safeguard and improve our labour laws, protect our pensions and improve the lives of workers , pensioners and their families.

Now is the time for change. It is up to us to ensure that the social election is a show of strength by all employees! This is more than just another election. It gives us the chance to ensure that our interests are firmly at the top of the agenda. Our votes are not just about marking a cross on a box. They are about solidarity, unity and coming together to make our voices heard.

Nora Back
President of the OGBL
