Boeing faces strike threat from 17,000 workers
The majority of engineers and technicians at Boeing in the United States are rejecting the company's four-year employment offer and are threatening to go on strike once the contract ends in October. The crisis stems from the rejection of the proposed offer, which includes salary increases of up to 3%, figures that are below the 4.5% inflation rate recorded in the region over the past year. This has led union members to demand larger raises. The voting results showed that 64% of engineers and 72% of technicians voted against the offer, which could delay the production of new aircraft models such as the 737 Max 10 and 777-9, and threaten the company's ongoing operations. Boeing has announced the initiation of contingency plans and preparations in case of a strike, reflecting escalating tensions between the company and its employees.
