Boeing white‑collar union ratifies four‑year contract, averting strike
The Society of Professional Engineering Employees in Aerospace (SPEEA) representing about 17,000 Boeing workers approved a new four‑year contract. The agreement provides a guaranteed 10% wage increase, 4% annual raises and a possible 2% performance‑based hike. Approximately 68% of the professional unit and just over 53% of the technical unit voted in favor, ending strike concerns that could have delayed certification of the 737 MAX 10 and 777X jets.
Why it matters
The ratification removes the risk of a work stoppage that would have disrupted Boeing’s production schedule and aircraft deliveries, supporting the company’s recovery plan.
