Boeing Machinists Return to Work

Following a vote on Sunday to ratify a four-year contract, Boeing workers returned to their jobs after a 58-day strike. The Intl Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) represents around 27,000 workers in the states of Washington, Oregon and Kansas. The contract includes wage increases of 5 percent over four years, a 16 percent pension raise and lump-sum payments of at least $8,000 over the life of the contract, according to Boeing.
