US EditionStriking Boeing Defense Workers to Vote on Latest Contract
The revised contract includes a $6,000 ratification bonus and other concessions endorsed by IAM District 837, aiming to end the strike and return 3,000 workers to Boeing defense plants.
- Thursday, more than 3,000 striking Boeing defense workers will vote on a revised contract with a $6,000 upfront `ratification bonus` covering machinists at Missouri and Illinois factories.
- The prior offer proposed a $3,000 signing bonus plus $3,000 in restricted stock, with a $12,000 retention bonus dropped after the narrow rejection, following the strike start on August 4.
- Boeing and union leaders emphasized job protections, with Steve Parker saying `No one would be displaced` and the union adding `We will guarantee that all IAM 837 members will be returned to work if this offer is ratified.`
- A ratification would trigger a Nov. 16 return-to-work plan starting with the third shift, while Boeing confirmed recruiting replacement workers though returning employees would keep their jobs if ratified.
- The bargaining context includes a $12,000 Seattle precedent as IAM negotiators pushed for $10,000, but IAM District 837 leaders backed the $6,000 upfront ratification bonus.
