SEATTLE, Aug 21 (Reuters) - Boeing's four-year contract offer to its largest white-collar union was rejected by members, union officials said on Friday.
Hoping to avoid a strike by thousands of engineers and technical workers, Boeing offered terms that were better than expected, several members of the Society of Professional Engineering Employees in Aerospace told Reuters.

A spokesperson for the union said its negotiation team plans to immediately survey members of the bargaining unit to see what it will take to approve a contract with Boeing.
Members overwhelmingly voted to give the negotiating team the power to declare a strike when the contract expires on October 7, if negotiations last that long.
