Staff reject union after Boeing whip up media storm

WORKERS at Boeing’s South Carolina plant rejected union representation on Wednesday after a massive propoganda campaign by the firm.

The staff at the factory, which makes the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, voted against membership of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers.

“We’re disappointed the workers at Boeing South Carolina will not yet have the opportunity to see all the benefits that come with union representation,” said IAM lead organiser Mike Evans.
