Boeing to Cut 10,000 Jobs in 2009

Boeing has announced plans to cut 10,000 jobs in 2009 after a workers strike in late 2008 resulted in a $58 million loss over the final three months of the year.

The job cuts represent about 6% of the aerospace firm’s total workforce and include the 4,500 job cuts announced earlier this month.

Boeing was hit hard by a 58-day strike by machinists which delayed production on several Boeing planes and prevented the delivery of nearly 70 aircrafts, both of which resulted in expensive charges.

According to CEO Jim McNerney the job cuts would be made “through attrition, retirement and layoffs.”
