SEATTLE: Boeing posted contractor positions for engineering and technical roles on job sites on Tuesday, in what appears to be the latest escalation in its labour dispute with its white-collar union at its commercial airplane division.
After members of the Society of Professional Engineering Employees in Aerospace (SPEEA) overwhelmingly rejected Boeing’s contract offer last Friday, the company said it would begin implementing a contingency plan in case of a strike after the current contract ends on Oct 6.
