About 6,000 members of the IAM have voted to reject Spirit’s “last best and final offer,” with a strike scheduled to begin at 12:01 a.m. Central Time (0501 GMT) on June 24, the union said.
“The IAM’s dedicated and hardworking membership at Spirit AeroSystems has worked without fail during tumultuous times, including a pandemic that saw everything grind to a halt. Most of our members have concluded that the company’s offer is unacceptable,” IAM said in a statement.
IAM and the company reached a tentative agreement last week that included additional health insurance and retirement benefits, made overtime on Sunday voluntary, and provided for up to a compounded 34% average pay increase over four years.
Spirit AeroSystems and Boeing did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
