Sustainability and resilience are key pillars of the Airbus strategy. Our sustainability efforts aim to address our environmental impact, build greater efficiency in our operations, and ensure the resilience of our products. We make progress against these goals through innovation and collaboration: pioneering new technologies, exploring alternative fuels, participating in and leading research, and making strategic partnerships and investments.

Aerospace is more than engineering. From enabling global cooperation to fostering economic inclusion, our industry is deeply intertwined with society. Aerospace connects people and opportunities. It facilitates the exchange of goods, services and ideas. 

Our industry also plays a key role in security, safety and peacekeeping.  Aerospace technology and products in action can contribute to protecting critical infrastructure and peacekeeping efforts, and help enterprises to protect against increasingly complex cyber and physical threats.

Everything Airbus does is guided by its core principles of safety, quality, security, integrity and compliance. These pillars enable us to fulfil our commitments while navigating risks and leveraging opportunities. We embed these interconnected principles into our daily operations to ensure resilience, competitiveness and adherence to the highest possible standards.

Our Ethics & Compliance Programme and Culture of Integrity reinforce one another. The programme provides the structural framework, policies, and guidance for responsible conduct worldwide; whereas the culture is nurtured as a living commitment maintained with unwavering focus. This section explains:

- Our commitments: The core standards that govern our actions.

- Our Ethics & Compliance Programme: The detailed policies guiding our daily interactions, addressing key areas like anti-corruption, responsible lobbying, and third-party due diligence.

- Our Culture of Integrity: The way we ensure accountability, including training, and a ‘Speak Up’ and ‘Listen Up’ culture that empowers our people.

Airbus Helicopters‘ training and flight operations goal is to design and provide innovative solutions to support its customers – which is key to enhancing operational safety.

Efficient helicopter operations are directly linked to the proficiency of pilots, flight crew and technicians, as well as their ability to safely operate and maintain rotorcraft during a full range of conditions and missions.
