Staff participation programme
The Zurich Airport Group gives those employees of Flughafen Zürich AG who have completed their first year of service one share free of charge as a one-off payment in kind. In financial year 2021, 82 shares (2020: 147 shares) worth CHF 13,024 (2020: CHF 19,232) were handed out.
Variable remuneration for members of the Management Board and other members of management
The total annual remuneration awarded to members of the Management Board and other members of management comprises a fixed salary and a variable remuneration component, which is based on the consolidated result. EBIT according to the budget (excluding the influence of aircraft noise) has been adopted as the target. The decision relating to the degree of achievement of the relevant target is taken in the following financial year (grant date). Two thirds of the variable remuneration is paid out in cash and one third in shares.

1) Shares distributed in the 2021 financial year under the variable remuneration programme for the Management Board and other members of management (number and price per share) for the 2020 financial year.
2) In the subsequent period, the accrued variable remuneration is adjusted through personnel expenses on the basis of the actual degree of achievement of the relevant profit figure.
The equity-settled portion of the bonus for financial year 2021 is calculated and accounted for on the basis of the data available as at the reporting date regarding the degree of achievement of the consolidated result. The number of shares to be granted cannot yet be established precisely at the reporting date, as that number is determined based on the quoted price as at the payment date (mid-April 2022). If the shares had been granted as at year-end, a total of 5,844 shares would have been distributed.
Remuneration of the Board of Directors
The remuneration awarded to the Board of Directors comprises an annual lump sum plus payments for attending meetings.
