SOCIAL SECURITY
Pilots operating for Cargolux Airlines International S.A. are affiliated to the Luxembourg social security system according to European regulations.
Luxembourg's social security system is made up to cover and provide income security in the following fields: retirement pension, maternity and parental leave, occupational accident, disability, survivor's insurance, long-term care insurance and early retirement pension. It also provides social and family benefits.
Despite unmatched social benefits, the deductions from the gross salary are among the lowest in the EU at about 11% withholdings.
Health Care
Luxembourg's healthcare system is one of the best in Europe. The state provided healthcare system covers affiliated individuals (resident and non-resident employees) with medical coverage in case of sickness, work-related accidents or illness, maternity, disability and dependency for medical costs and loss of remuneration.
Immediate family members (i.e. spouse and dependents) could also benefit from social security coverage if not themselves affiliated.
Pension
Employees who have been affiliated at least 12 months in Luxembourg (and at least 10 years within the EU) may benefit at the legal retirement age from the Luxembourg pension allowance according to the time of affiliation in Luxembourg. The benefits of the Luxembourg state pension system typically exceed those of most European countries.
Child & Family allowance
The standard of child and family allowances in Luxembourg is one of the highest within the EU.
As a Cargolux employee, you are entitled to social benefits if you are EU/EFTA resident. As from August 1st 2016, child benefits amount to 265 per child per month. The amount is not subject to tax in Luxembourg.
If you or the other parent already receive child allowance from another EU country, the Luxembourg government could pay a differential supplement subject to the current regulation.
TAXATION
Taxes in Luxembourg are relatively low compared to the other European countries. Additionally, some supplements are exempt from tax in Luxembourg.
Taxation depends on the country of residence and the application of a bilateral tax agreement between Luxembourg and your country of residence.
