Boeing, union pause contract talks for former Spirit AeroSystems engineers
Labor officials said on Wednesday that contract talks with Boeing covering the future of roughly 1,600 white-collar union members at fuselage supplier Spirit AeroSystems after its acquisition by the planemaker had been paused until January 5.
The Society of Professional Engineering Employees in Aerospace (SPEEA) represents the workers in Wichita, Kansas. It also represents about 16,000 Boeing workers in western Washington state.
