Description
Boeing said planned layoffs of 10% of its workforce will move forward even if the machinists' strike ends next week, according to a spokesperson.
Information released to KING 5 by a vetted source indicates the layoff notices will be delivered mid-November, and the last day on the payroll for thousands of employees will be Jan. 17. Managers and executives will also be impacted by the job cuts.
