CONTRACT OF INDEFINITE DURATION
| LUXEMBOURG |
| CONTRAT À DURÉE INDÉTERMINÉE CONTRACT OF INDEFINITE DURATION |
The presumption in Luxembourg law (Law of 24 May 1989) is that every contract of employment is concluded for a term of unspecified duration. Fixed-term contracts constitute an exception permitted only within narrow limits. The normal employment contract of indefinite duration continues to take effect until it ends in the circumstances laid down by law.
