(Reuters) -Members of the United Auto Workers union at GE Aerospace’s Evendale, Ohio, and Erlanger, Kentucky, facilities have reached a tentative agreement with the company, the union said on Friday.

“Members will vote on ratification on September 19, and until then, all picket lines will continue,” UAW said in a post on X.

In late August, over 600 workers from the union went on a strike after failing to reach a new contract agreement with the company.

The strike marked the latest flashpoint of a broader wave of labor actions across the aerospace and aviation industries, where unions have sought to leverage demand for skilled workers into better contracts.

Pilots, flight attendants, machinists and engineers have all pushed for higher pay and tougher job protections in recent years.
