Boeing and engineers’ union reach tentative contract agreement
The union recommended approval after Boeing added a 10% guaranteed wage increase and other raises to its latest proposal.
- On Friday, Boeing and the Society of Professional Engineering Employees in Aerospace reached a tentative contract agreement after three weeks of resumed negotiations, seeking to avert a potential strike.
- Negotiators returned to the table after members overwhelmingly rejected an August 21 proposal, citing concerns that its 3% wage increases failed to keep pace with local inflation rising 4.5% annually.
- The revised four-year offer includes a 10% guaranteed wage increase effective October 16, followed by 4% raises in 2027 and annual wage pools through 2030, according to the union.
- Boeing vice president Ben Nimmergut stated the proposal "addresses the top priorities identified by our employees," while SPEEA's negotiating team credited member activism for achieving the improved terms.
- Members will vote on the proposal in coming weeks with no date yet announced; the current contract expires October 6, after which union members could authorize a strike.
