Boeing announced that it will lay off 10% of its workforce in the coming months and cut its production in the wake of a labor union strike.

One of our region’s largest employers, Boeing, is starting to send out layoff notices today. Workers who build aircraft are not expected to be cut, according to CEO Kelly Ortberg. Employees in the Machinists Union returned to work Tuesday after a seven-week strike, and Boeing needs to start delivering airplanes again.

(Tribune News Service) — Boeing employees will learn Wednesday who will lose their jobs in mid-January in the round of layoffs Boeing announced last month. The cuts will be broadly spread across the company and, despite some expectations earlier, engineers and production workers won’t be exempt.
