Boeing, union hold 'productive' talks in attempt to end strike

By Julie Johnsson and Danny Lee / Bloomberg

Boeing and union leaders representing 33,000 striking workers held fruitful talks Tuesday, with the help of the Biden administration’s top labor official, as they try to end a seven-week labor dispute that’s crippling Boeing’s U.S. manufacturing.

Boeing and the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers had a “productive face-to-face meeting” — with assistance from acting Labor Secretary Julie Su — to “address key bargaining issues,” the union said on its website.

The “negotiating committee will continue to engage with the company to secure the best possible outcome for our members,” it added.

Boeing confirmed that it has resumed negotiations and met earlier Tuesday with the union.
