On 9 December 2020, the Luxembourg Parliament adopted a new secondment act, the purpose of which is to transpose into national law Directive (EU) 2018/957 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 28 June 2018 amending Directive 96/71/EC concerning the posting of workers in the framework of the provision of services.

The Directive is intended to aid in the fight against employment fraud and social dumping. The new secondment act transposes the Directive by introducing several modifications to the Labour Code.
