SPEEA to Boeing: Stop outsourcing


Posted at 6:59 am by Michelle Dunlop

In a contract year, Boeing’s engineers union, SPEEA, is turning to video to air many of its issues with the company.

Last month, SPEEA’s new director laid out the union’s concerns – ranging from new pension plans to healthcare – in an interview with The Herald.

Boeing’s lead labor negotiator, Doug Kight, addressed a variety of issues that could come up in talks with either SPEEA or the Machinists in today’s newspaper.

SPEEA’s latest video looks at Boeing’s use of outsourcing. The engineers discuss the outsourcing-related difficulties the company has faced with its delayed 787 Dreamliner.
