New Boeing contract splits engineers, tech workers
SEATTLE – Boeing Co.'s engineers have accepted a new four-year contract while technical workers rejected their offer and voted to authorize a future strike.
The union representing both groups had recommended rejection of the contract because it would not provide pensions to new employees. They would have a 401(k) retirement plan instead.
The union called that unacceptable, but the Chicago-based aerospace company said the change was important to its future.
