Boeing workers have ended their 53-day strike after 33,000 frontline workers at Boeing, members of International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) Districts 751 and W24 voted to ratify a new union contract with the aerospace company.

IAM said the new contract includes a 43.65% compounded wage increase – 38% before compounding – over the four-year life of the contract.
