Boeing to lay off over 2,500 workers in US as part of sweeping cuts

Quick Summary:

BOEING will lay off more than 2,500 workers in the U.S.states of Washington, Oregon, South Carolina and Missouri, according to federally required filings posted on Monday and a union official, as part of the debt-heavy U.S.planemaker's plan to cut 17,000 jobs, or 10% of its global workforce.

Louis said Boeing sent notices to 111 members, most of whom made wing components for the 777X.

The notices come as Boeing tries to restart production of its strongest-selling 737 MAX, after a weeks-long strike by more than 33,000 U.S.
