Acting US Secretary of Labor Julie Sue has flown to Seattle to meet with Boeing and the union representing about 33,000 workers on strike to push the two sides back to the negotiation table, a person familiar with the matter said on Monday. A few days before her intervention, the aircraft manufacturer had just announced plans to cut 17,000 jobs and $5 billion in costs. The source added that it's unclear whether Sue will meet Boeing CEO Kelly Otterberg. The Department of Labor confirmed the move. “Acting Minister Su will meet with both sides today to assess the situation and encourage the two sides to advance the negotiation process,” a spokesperson said.
