Union Rules Set High Bar to Boeing U.S. Worker Strike

Sept. 12, 2024 | STRIKES | Update: Workers go on strike after rejecting contract offer. Boeing faces a likely strike on Friday by more than 30,000 workers that could shutter its Seattle-area plane factories over demands for a bigger pay increase than the 25% over four years that union leaders agreed to. If there is no strike, the unionized workers could have to swallow a contract that most of them have said they oppose. That is because they need a supermajority to strike under rules from the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM), the largest aerospace union in North America which represents Boeing's U.S. West coast workers.
