密苏里州和伊利诺伊州波音国防工人因合同被拒发起罢工

摘要

密苏里州和伊利诺伊州超过3200名波音国防工人在拒绝一项为期四年的劳动合同提案后,已开始罢工。

密苏里州和伊利诺伊州超过3200名加入工会的波音国防工人在拒绝公司最新的为期四年的劳动合同提案后,已开始罢工。这些工人由国际机械师与航空航天工人协会(IAM)第837区代表,分别在密苏里州圣路易斯和圣查尔斯以及伊利诺伊州马斯科塔的波音工厂工作。他们负责组装和维护军用飞机,包括F-15和F/A-18战斗机,以及导弹和防御系统。

罢工于周一午夜开始,此前工会以压倒性多数投票拒绝了提议的合同。IAM中西部地区副总裁萨姆·奇奇内利表示:

“IAM第837区的成员制造了保护我们国家安全的飞机和防御系统。他们理应获得一份保障家庭安全并认可其无与伦比专业技能的合同。”

波音对合同被拒表示失望,指出该提议包括平均40%的工资增长,并解决了关于替代工作时间表的相关问题。波音空中优势副总裁兼圣路易斯高级现场执行官丹·吉利安表示,公司已为罢工做好准备,并实施了应急计划以确保继续支持客户。

此次劳工行动紧随2024年早些时候的一次罢工,当时超过3.3万名波音机械师罢工,导致公司遭受重大经济损失。目前的罢工凸显了波音与其员工在薪酬和工作条件方面持续存在的紧张关系。
