Indefinite-term employment contract (CDI)
The CDI organizes a work relationship without setting, at its conclusion, an end date. In Luxembourg, it constitutes the reference framework for sustainable employment. The employee works for remuneration under the authority of their employer: the reality of this relationship counts as much as the name given to the document.
A written document must specify the conditions of the engagement. Its absence does not mean that the employee works without any rights or that the relationship is nonexistent. The qualification of the contract and the proof of employment must then be examined based on the available elements: payments, schedules, instructions, and exchanges.
Indefinite duration does not mean impossibility to terminate. Resignation, dismissal, and negotiated departure follow different mechanisms. To assess a concrete situation, gather the contract, its amendments, the entry date, and any applicable collective agreements. A probationary clause is not presumed solely because the hiring is recent.
