Since 2003, this annual survey (STATEC is the project ownership) has become the Luxembourgish part of the European reference source concerning income, poverty and living conditions statistics. This survey is coordinate by Eurostat and of national imperative. It ensures the creation of national and European indicators in the field of social cohesion and social protection. This surveys is particularly used to estimate the poverty rate and to give key information for the annual report on “Work and social cohesion” written by the STATEC.
The importance of such indicators has increased since June 2010 when the heads of European Union Member States (country or government) have decided that the European Union should reduce by 20 million the number of people in the EU living in households facing poverty and social exclusion. From the point of view of social scientists, a monitoring of the same households each year allows an original analysis which adapts to changes in society.
