Negotiations over benefits for Boeing workers have broken down, resulting in company officials withdrawing a proposed contract that would have given workers 30 percent raises over four years.

The contract was taken off the table after two days of discussion, which the company said was ultimately not taken seriously by the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) District 751 union.
