Airbus has released that it will temporarily pause production and assembly activities at its French and Spanish sites across the Company, for four days starting March 17. This is meant to allow sufficient time to implement stringent health and safety conditions in terms of hygiene, cleaning and self-distancing,
Airbus said that it is doing its utmost to support its employees who are affected by schools and child care closures by providing them with a maximum of flexibility in dealing with the situation. This includes enabling home office where possible, while at the same time ensuring business continuity at Airbus to meet customer commitments and complying with national regulations.
Airbus employees are advised to restrict travel to business critical missions only excluding to high risk regions. Visits to Airbus from high risk regions are halted. Employees having returned from any high risk regions must self-quarantine for 14 days.
