The Airbus health and safety training catalogue is constantly evolving to support Airbus’ risk management activities. Airbus has defined a health and safety development strategy focusing on harmonised and standardised training. Airbus is also continuously developing its health and safety learning catalogue including digital solutions and alternative learning approaches. From October 2017 to September 2018, the Company delivered over 137,000 hours of dedicated health and safety training to approximately 30,800 individual employees. Protecting health and safety is one of the Company’s top priorities, and Airbus is continuously reviewing its means and processes across plants and sites with this in mind. The “REACH-IT” project within Airbus’ commercial aircraft activities, including similar initiatives within the Divisions, reviews Airbus manufacturing processes, tools and workstations in light of the REACH authorisation application measures for environment, health and safety protection. It contributes to continuous improvement. With regard to sub-contracting, as further detailed in section 1.1.8.4(b) Responsible Suppliers, Airbus strives to continuously improve the integration of health and safety elements into the purchasing process. Airbus standard procurement contracts contain health and safety provisions to be respected by suppliers. In addition, on-site sub-contracting processes are in place and are continuously evolving with a harmonisation objective. Airbus identifies potential risks and defines prevention measures in cooperation with on-site sub-contractors, jointly producing dedicated documents, such as the prevention plans in France or job registration forms in the UK. Airbus then monitors on-site sub-contracting activities.

FISH (the new company-wide software platform for health and safety) will develop consistency of health and safety incident reporting and investigation to improve the Company’s incident management results. This will in turn improve data analysis capability and help reinforce preventative activities. The People Safety@Work project was launched for Airbus commercial aircraft activities mid-2018. This project aims to improve the management of work-related healthy and safety injuries in operational areas and drive a safety mind-set. The project is structured through a multi-functional team led by all impacted functions ( e.g. , Human Resources, Industry, Final Assembly Line, Facility Management, Procurement). Key Initiatives Airbus regularly consults and provides information to employee representatives, for example in direct meetings and committees. Airbus has health and safety committees involving employees and their representatives in line with applicable regulations. As examples of such interaction, the health and safety software platform (FISH) project has been presented to more than 25 national and European employee committees and the health and safety team has contributed to an agreement signed with French social partners on quality of life at work ( Qualité de vie au travail ). Airbus continues to conduct communication campaigns with the ongoing aim of encouraging employees to engage in health and safety risk management. In April 2018, Airbus held a company- wide risk awareness campaign to coincide with the ILO World H&S Day, extending to all employees throughout the group. Numerous other initiatives have been deployed locally on sites including the Safety Box (a dedicated space for safety training and information); Safety Road Risk initiatives; the Extended Enterprise Platform for onsite contractors; and the company- wide health and safety colloquium, where health and safety practitioners meet to exchange ideas and best practices.
