From September to December 2009, LISER (CEPS/INSTEAD when the survey was conducted) carried out the second large-scale cultural survey commissioned by the Luxembourg Ministry of Culture. The topics covered include sociocultural leisure pursuits, reading habits, use of cultural venues, use of media, etc. Analysis of the data provided a picture of cultural practices in 2009 that could be compared with the first survey, conducted in 1999, to see the changes that had occurred. A total of 2,000 people aged 15 or over, seen as representing Luxembourg society, were questioned (note that the panel grew, as it comprised only 1,600 people in 1999). Questions were asked about every aspect of their cultural practice: museums, cinema, theatre, literature, written and audiovisual press, live and recorded entertainment, and music, including their 'mode of consumption' (frequency, weekdays, weekends, or holidays, for example) and, lastly, about their overall satisfaction with what was available in Luxembourg in this respect.

3000 women took part in a survey between December 1995 and January 1996. All of these 3000 women were private employees working in Luxembourg. The survey was part of a research programme launched and funded by the Chambre des Employés Privés, and carried out by LISER (formerly Ceps/Instead). The research collected a large quantity of data about female private employees, most of it brand new. The questionnaire used in the survey covered eight themes: 1. Members of the household 2. Basic education/training 3. Continued professional development 4. A description of their current professional circumstances 5. Employment history 6. Work/life balance 7. Constraints, solutions, and desires with regard to the balance between working and family life 8. Female cross-border worker characteristics The survey is within the context of recent growth in the female workforce in Luxembourg between 1987 and 1997, where 32,500 new women joined the workforce, and make up 48% of private employees. This growth is clearly visible in the statistics, but it was also apparent in the most recent trade union elections, with more women elected in the last election than ever before. Indeed, today eight women are members of the Chambre des Employés Privés’ plenary assembly. This helped raise awareness of the increasing importance of women in the workplace which lead to taking a closer look at the issue. It was then realised that before this survey there had been no research focusing specifically on working conditions for women in Luxembourg.
