The Boeing Company Defense Union proposed to pay a $10,000 bonus to end the strike.

Defense workers at Boeing who went on strike will vote on Friday on a contract proposal drafted by union leaders, which includes a 20% guaranteed pay raise and a $10,000 signing bonus in an effort to end the six-week labor dispute. The aircraft manufacturer criticized the union's new move and its revised contract terms, claiming that these terms were developed without consulting management. Boeing stated that the strike has resulted in an average income loss of $15,000 for factory workers.
