IGSS data (march of each year), calculations LISER.

In order to respect the protection of personal data, IGSS has used a specialized software to round numbers in order to insure additivity of the tables as much as possible. Real numbers are rounded up or down to the tens of units (but not necessarily to the closest ten) so as to reduce the risk of identification and disclosure.

In 2023, 1.04% of workers in domestic employment were women aged 50: 0.44% were cross-border workers, 0.30% foreign residents and 0.30% Luxembourgish residents. That same year, women accounted for 41% of the workers in domestic employment.
