Request for Reasons for Dismissal
The request for reasons allows the dismissed employee with notice to know the precise reasons for the decision. Under the ordinary Luxembourg regime, the employee has one month from receipt of the dismissal letter to request them by registered mail. The employer must respond within the month following receipt of this request.
This process serves to prepare the analysis of the alleged facts. It does not, by itself, constitute a legal challenge to the dismissal. File the request and its proof of sending with the received response, then separately verify the appeal deadline. The ordinary regime does not automatically apply to the trial period.
