ENID, Oklahoma -- A tentative agreement has been reached between Vance Air Force Base contractor and union workers.

CSC Applied Technologies LLC said the new agreement would include a 3.75 percent wage increase each year of the contract and 20-cent-per-hour pension increase at the end of each year.

The workforce will vote on the tentative agreement Monday and could go back to work as early as Tuesday.

Nearly 800 workers went on strike about two weeks ago after their union and CSC Applied Technologies were unable to reach an agreement for a new contract.
