*Ad-hoc release, 17 March 2020*
*Airbus provides update on COVID-19 related measures*
*Amsterdam, 17 March 2020* - Airbus SE (stock exchange symbol: AIR)
continues to closely monitor the evolution of the COVID-19 virus across the
globe and is constantly assessing the situation, the impact on employees,
customers, suppliers and the business.
Following the implementation of new measures in France and Spain to contain
the COVID-19 pandemic, Airbus has decided to temporarily pause production
and assembly activities at its French and Spanish sites across the Company
for the next four days. This will allow sufficient time to implement
stringent health and safety conditions in terms of hygiene, cleaning and
self-distancing, while improving the efficiency of operations under the new
working conditions. In those countries, the Company will also continue to
maximise homeworking wherever possible.
These measures will be implemented locally in coordination with the social
partners. Airbus is also working together with its customers and suppliers
to minimise the impact of this decision on their operations.
Airbus continuously updates its workplace safety and travel recommendations
to employees, customers and visitors, according to the latest developments.
Airbus is following the guidance from the World Health Organisation and
national health authorities.
