Value of the SAS index point
Last updated : May 13, 2026
Article 21 of the CCT SAS 2025 sets out the mechanism for indexing salaries: the "SAS index point" follows the national sliding scale, so your salary increases automatically at each index tranche triggered by STATEC.
Basic formula
The basic monthly salary of a full-time employee is calculated as follows:
Gross monthly salary = number of points (article 23) × value of the SAS index point × (weekly hours / 40)
The value of the SAS index point at index number 100 is set at €2.41733 (value as at 1st January 2021).
Application of the sliding wage scale
The actual value of the point is calculated by applying the application rating of the sliding scale:
Actual value = €2.41733 × application rating / 100
The first five digits after the decimal point are retained by applying commercial rounding. For example, for a rating of 968.04, the value of the point works out at €23.40072.
The sliding scale in practice
The application rating is a national indicator, published by STATEC, which tracks the evolution of consumer prices. When cumulative inflation exceeds a certain threshold (about 2.5% on a moving average), a new index tranche is triggered: the rating rises automatically, and with it the value of the index point as well as all salaries in the sector.
The mechanism applies identically:
- to the salaries of the Luxembourg civil service;
- to employees of the SAS sector (CCT SAS);
- to employees of the hospital sector (CCT FHL).
