IAM Union District 837 and Boeing have agreed to resume mediation, facilitated by the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (FMCS), in an effort to resolve a labor dispute involving about 3,200 union members. The workers, who are based in the St. Louis area, are approaching their twelfth week on strike.

The mediation sessions are set to begin on Monday, October 20.

In a statement released by IAM District 837, the union said: “The IAM Union is hopeful that returning to mediation will lead to meaningful progress and a fair resolution. We’re ready to get back to the table, reach an equitable agreement, and get our members back to work building the world’s most advanced military aircraft and defense systems.”
