Economic performance
Dassault Aviation regards the creation of value as an essential goal in terms of ensuring its profitability, financial stability and long-term future. In a context of intense international competition, the Group must be more flexible, adaptable, and responsive in dealings with its customers, suppliers and partners.

The Group is active in national and international aviation and defense organizations. Its internal and external communications are open and transparent.
Environmental protection measures
For several years, Dassault Aviation has gradually developed an environmental policy and an organiza-tional structure that has helped reinforce environmental considerations at all its sites. Its facilities have all received ISO 14001 certification of their environmental management systems.
In the executive aviation industry, Dassault Aviation monitors technological and regulatory developments, thereby enabling it to take into account a certain number of environmental requirements from the Falcon design phase. This is the case for maximum sound and atmospheric pollution levels permitted in order to obtain aircraft certification.
With regard to strike aircraft, the future calls for tender of the French General Delegation for Armament will contain environmental clauses.
Support for the Global Compact initiative.
In 2003, Dassault Aviation joined the UN Global Compact initiative. The Group supports the ten principles relating to human rights, labor standards and environmental protection. It is through this commitment that Dassault Aviation has progressively incorporated the Global Compact principles into its strategy, culture and daily operations.
