Striking workers at Boeing Defense’s St. Louis-area facilities have approved the company’s latest contract offer, ending a 101-day strike that disrupted production. The International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) District 837, representing about 3,200 members, sought better bonuses and retirement contributions. Boeing’s revised offer included a cash incentive increase to $6,000, despite a reduction in the overall bonus. The strike, which began on August 4, affected deliveries of F-15 fighter jets to the U.S. Air Force and slowed production across various programmes. IAM officials confirmed the vote on Thursday.
