Dassault Aviation provides support to people undertaking professional retraining at its various facilities across France, for example with certified metallurgical courses for fitters as well as assembly and cable installation specialists. Our Argonay factory has set up a school for metalworkers and machine fitters. Our Mérignac and Martignas factories offer training to vocational apprenticeship students, specializing in aircraft systems, avionics, and structures, as part of a special internship program.
The Dassault Skill Academy program is designed to support the growth of our manufacturing operations in international markets. For example, we have set up aeronautics diploma programs in Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh.
For the past decade, Dassault Aviation has been consistently identified by engineering school students as one of the ten best companies to work for. In addition to featuring in the top ten in the Universum France 2025 rankings, the company has also been named as one of the three most popular industrial companies among students and recent graduates, according to the Epoka/Occurence survey.
Dassault Aviation took third place in the Aerospace, Rail and Naval category, in Statista’s 2025 ranking of France’s 500 best employers, conducted for Capital magazine.
While remaining responsive to changing economic conditions, our compensation policy is designed to attract, reward and retain employees. Our incentives policy is extremely competitive: in 2026, the average amount of profit‑sharing and incentive payments made to Dassault Aviation parent company employees in respect of the 2025 fiscal year was equivalent to 3.8 months of salary; 35% of profits made by our French businesses are redistributed in this way.
