Boeing Defense, striking machinists say negotiations will resume Monday

Machinists representing 3,200 Boeing workers in St. Louis seek faster pay scale advancement and improved 401(K) benefits after rejecting a 20% wage increase offer over four years.

  • Approximately 3,200 members of IAM District 837 struck Boeing's St. Louis-area defense factories on August 4, 2025, rejecting a contract offer.
  • The strike followed the union's rejection of Boeing's second contract offer on August 3, which included a 20% wage increase and a $5,000 ratification bonus now off the table.
  • Boeing maintained production during the strike with non-union workers and holds informal talks with the union, aiming to resolve the three-week impasse.
  • Union President Brian Bryant said the union is ready to negotiate, stating, "The ball is in Boeing's court," while Boeing's vice president Dan Gillian expressed hope for further talks to end the strike.
  • Boeing and IAM District 837 confirmed that formal contract negotiations will resume on Monday, August 25, 2025, marking the first formal session since the strike began.
