Boeing machinist exposes ongoing safety problems following last year’s strike


”Boeing doesn’t really care about the safety of the employees. They don't care about what happens when you walk out the door and go home to your families.”

This includes: inflation-busting wage increases, the restoration of company pensions and genuine improvements in the quality control measures to ensure the aircraft produced are never again involved in tragedies such as the 737 MAX 8 crashes in 2018 and 2019 that killed 346 passengers and crew. The World Socialist Web Site spoke with one of the machinists who opposed the sellout contract, Jordan, about their thoughts on the deal, as well as the broader issues of safety and quality that are still pervasive within the company. For me, seeing that you guys have a publication and a leg to stand on does give a voice to those of us that feel like we’re unheard a lot of the time and have for many years now—it’s nice to see that people are actually fighting for the working class.
