Workers at Spirit AeroSystems' plant in Wichita, Kansas, which makes critical structures for Boeing jetliners, will go on strike on Saturday, after rejecting a proposed four-year deal, the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers said
jetliners, will go on strike on Saturday, after rejecting a proposed four-year deal on Wednesday night, the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers said.
About 6,000 members of the IAM voted to reject Spirit's "last best and final offer," with a strike scheduled to begin at 12:01 a.m. CDT on June 24, the union said. "The IAM's dedicated and hardworking membership at Spirit AeroSystems has worked without fail during tumultuous times, including a pandemic that saw everything grind to a halt. Most of our members have concluded that the company's offer is unacceptable," IAM said in a statement.
The union said it would regroup and begin planning "the following steps to bring the company back to the table."Spirit's Wichita production facility is responsible for manufacturing major subassemblies of most Boeing jetliners, including the entire fuselage of Boeing's lucrative 737 narrowbody aircraft and the forward fuselage of the widebody 787 Dreamliner.
A stoppage would impede Boeing as it tries to recover from 737 and 787 production glitches. The company is trying to ramp up production to meet end-of-year objectives, bumping output from three to five 787s per month and 31 to 38 single-aisle 737s per month.
