Boeing plans to give 60-day layoff notices to about 500 workers companywide today, with about 275 of those in the Puget Sound region.
About 200 of those receiving the notices work in the commercial-airplanes division, Boeing said.
Boeing has been issuing layoff notices monthly since January, when it said it needed to cut 10,000 positions in 2009. Through the end of July, Boeing had cut about 2,400 jobs companywide and not filled more than 1,000 additional open positions.
At the end of July, the Boeing workforce in Washington stood at just over 74,000, down more than 2,800 since its most recent high last October.
