— ENGAGED PEOPLE
ENGAGED
PEOPLE
Airbus Group is committed to ensuring a talent pipeline
drawing from all backgrounds.
In 2013, the Group recruited 8,823 employees worldwide (11,080
in 2012), while 4,160 employees left the company (4,042 in 2012).
Overall, the workforce stood at 144,061 at year-end 2013
(year-end 2012: 140,405). The increase was mainly driven by the
continued industrial ramp-up in the commercial aircraft business.
Given strong growth perspectives in the commercial aircraft
market and the need both to maintain strategic competences
and foster innovation in an increasingly competitive
environment, Airbus Group is committed to ensuring a talent
pipeline drawing from all backgrounds. According to both the
Trendence and Universum graduate surveys, the Group was
ranked the most attractive employer amongst French
engineering students in 2013. International HR services
company Randstad ranked the Group as the most attractive
employer for experienced professionals in Spain and number
three in Germany.
DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION
Airbus Group is committed to diversity and inclusion, recognising
the need to nurture outstanding talent wherever available and the
value and increased performance a diverse workforce can bring
to the business. The Group’s diversity strategy focuses in
particular on equipping leaders and teams to understand and
leverage diversity in the workplace. This includes reviewing
processes, policies and training to support the diverse
workforce, changing mindsets with regard to existing
stereotypes, encouraging more women, internationally and
socially diverse and disabled candidates and benchmarking
and partnering with external organisations.
In 2013, 20.9% of new recruits to the company were women (21.4%
in 2012) and women made up 17% of the active workforce (17.3%
in 2012). By 2020, Airbus Group aims to increase the share of
women recruited to 25% and the share of women within the senior
manager and executive community to 20%.
In terms of nationalities, European employees make up the bulk
of the workforce. French employees accounted for 37.1% (38.5%
in 2012), German 33.4% (32.9% in 2012), UK 9.2% (9.3% in 2012)
Airbus Group sees employee
engagement as a key driver
of company performance.
