Summary
Boeing factory workers in Seattle voted to accept a new contract, ending a 53-day strike that halted production of the company’s key airliner.
The deal, approved by 59% of voting union members, includes a 38% wage increase over four years, a $12,000 ratification bonus, and productivity incentives, though it does not restore a previously frozen pension plan.
The strike cost Boeing an estimated $50 million per day, exacerbating financial pressures. Boeing looks to resume production within weeks.
