SEATTLE, Aug 31 (Reuters) – Negotiators from Boeing and the union representing engineers and technical workers in Washington and other states will resume contract talks on September 8, the union announced on Monday.
Talks ended after members of the Society of Professional Engineering Employees in Aerospace overwhelmingly rejected Boeing’s four-year contract offer on August 21.
The two sides met on Monday to discuss resuming negotiations.
SPEEA members said in an internal survey that their top priority is getting higher general wage increases from Boeing in the next offer.
“We look forward to taking in SPEEA’s feedback and reaching a resolution that works for our employees and keeps our company and team competitive for years to come,” a Boeing spokesperson said.
