By (Reuters) – The union representing thousands of striking Boeing (NYSE:BA) machinists said on Wednesday it will meet on Friday with the planemaker and the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Services to continue contract negotiations.
Earlier this week, the union said a survey showed members were overwhelmingly against Boeing’s latest pay proposal, which the company described as its “best and final.”
More than 32,000 Boeing workers in the Seattle area and Portland, Oregon, walked off the job on Sept. 13 in the union’s first strike since 2008, halting production of airplane models including its best-selling 737 MAX.
