II. Governance The Airbus Occupational Health and Safety Policy is a group- wide foundation for the management of health and safety within the workplace. The Policy applies to the Company’s commercial aircraft activities, to the Airbus Helicopters and Airbus Defence and Space Divisions, and also to the Company’s affiliates. In 2021, an Airbus Occupational Health and Policy Statement was signed by Guillaume Faury, Airbus CEO, to enhance and reinforce the Policy principles. The health and safety organisation is part of the Human Resources and Workplace Department under the ultimate responsibility of the Company’s Chief Human Resources Officer. The organisation is called Environment, Health and Safety (EHS). The Head of EHS reports to the Chief Human Resources Officer, and is supported by local EHS business partners. There are also regional EHS business partners in China, North America and APAC. Cross-organisation expertise, support and coordination is provided by centres of expertise, including safety, industrial hygiene, ergonomics and operational environment and occupational health and wellbeing. The EHS organisation is responsible for the health and safety management system and for the operational application of the corporate environment and sustainability management system in the entities.

Approximately one third of the Company’s core entities in home countries are now certified to the ISO45001 Standard for health and safety management systems or have a similar certification. Company wide, this means that nearly 25% of employees work on sites where the health and safety management system is certified to ISO45001. Other sites have formal management systems that are not yet formally certified, but operate to the standards required by our health and management systems. III. Risk Management The role of the Airbus’ health and safety organisation is to anticipate, identify, evaluate and prevent or mitigate risks to safety, health and well-being, and the business, arising as a consequence of the Company’s work activities. Health and safety requirements have been defined in a directive that applies company-wide, including to the Company’s affiliates. The Company’s affiliates report on their health and safety management status through the Internal Controls Self Assessment (ICSA) exercise. Occupational health and safety risks are managed using the framework provided in the Company Methods for “Health and Safety Risk Management” and “Incident Management”. Those risks that are considered to have a high potential impact,
