Mike Corsetti, a quality inspector who has worked at Boeing for 13 years, said he was again leaning against the latest offer after voting down the previous proposals.
Striking workers at Boeing (NYSE: BA) began voting Monday on the aerospace giant’s latest contract proposal to end a bruising walkout that has dragged on for more than seven weeks.
The vote by some 33,000 machinists in the Pacific Northwest could pave the way for production to resume at two Seattle-area factories that build the 737 MAX and 777 aircraft after workers voted down two previous offers.
Voting will take place all day, with the results expected to be announced Monday night Seattle time.
Chief Executive Kelly Ortberg has implored strikers to ratify the deal.
