FILE PHOTO: The Boeing logo is seen on the side of a Boeing 737 MAX at the Farnborough International Airshow - Boeing firefighters voted on Thursday to approve a new four-year contract deal that will boost wages for workers and end a weeks-long lockout by the planemaker.
The four-year deal includes general wage hikes of 2% to 3% annually, with guaranteed overtime increasing annual pay on average by up to $21,216, as well as a $1,000 signing bonus and other compensation improvements, according to a joint fact sheet from the company and the union reviewed by Reuters.The deal also includes job classification restructuring that allows more opportunities for promotion and will significantly reduce the time needed to get to top pay.
The company said in early May it had offered to increase firefighters' average take-home pay to $112,000 in the first year from $91,000. Yeager added the deal brings wages for firefighters "into comparable range" of fire departments in the area. REGINA — A lawyer for the truck driver who caused the deadly Humboldt Broncos bus crash says families of the victims have no standing to seek compensation in an ongoing lawsuit. Court arguments are being heard this week in Regina over whether the truck driver and Saskatchewan government can be removed as defendants in the suit. The claim also names the bus and trucking companies.
