AIRBUS employees in the UK are being handed an "exceptional premium" bonus to help with the rising cost of living.
The premium will amount to £1,500 (gross) and will be mirrored in other countries with a premium calculated as a percentage of the average local base salary.
Around 120,000 employees worldwide, including the 5,000 based at Airbus' Broughton site, will be given the payment.

An Airbus spokesperson said: "The company believes that this solution is the most appropriate to support our employees in the short-term as they cope with the current inflationary environment.
"As a reminder, Airbus paid a profit-sharing and incentive bonus to its employees just before the summer and has carried out constructive dialogue with its social partners to implement meaningful salary increase policies."
