Boeing's largest union has rejected the previous labor contract and announced the continuation of the strike. Writes UNN with reference to Le Figaro.
Boeing employees reject the social agreement: almost two-thirds (64%) of the members of the local chapter of the International Association of Machinists (IAM) opposed the project on Wednesday night.
“Our members did not recognize this proposal as adequate,” said its president, John Holden.
The vote, according to the media, is a significant setback for the new CEO Kelly Ortberg, who is trying to restore Boeing's reputation.

Earlier, on September 8, the company rejected a draft agreement with the IAM that the employees considered insufficient. The IAM demanded a 40% pay raise, as salaries have lagged behind inflation in recent years.
