Inflation: Airbus will pay a bonus of 1,500 euros to its employees

This bonus will be paid at the end of the year to all group employees in the United Kingdom, Germany, France and Spain.

Airbus will pay a bonus to its employees around the world, of 1,500 euros gross in its main countries of implementation, in the face of galloping inflation, according to a message to employees that AFP was made aware of on Monday. “The Airbus Executive Committee has decided that an exceptional bonus will be paid before the end of 2022 to all Airbus employees up to and including Senior Manager level”, that is, to the vast majority of its employees, says the European group.

The “exceptional” bonus will amount to 1,500 euros or gross pounds “per employee in the four founding countries (United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain),” adds the company. In the rest of the countries, the bonus will be calculated according to the “local average basic salary” to “reflect the decision applied to the four founding countries,” adds the company.

Increase of 6.8% in 2 years in France

Airbus employed more than 126,000 people worldwide at the end of 2021, including 46,000 in France, 43,000 in Germany, 12,000 in Spain and more than 9,000 in the UK. The European giant plans to hire at least 6,000 people worldwide in 2022. Work-study students will also benefit from the move.

“The volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity that characterize our environment have been further reinforced in recent months by the energy crisis and inflation”, recalls the company, for which the granting of this bond aims to “contribute both to the maintenance of a committed state of mind and the purchasing power of each and every one”.

In France, salary negotiations concluded at the beginning of the year provide for a salary increase, applicable on July 1, of 6.8% over two years, accompanied by a review clause at the beginning of 2023.
