Safeway workers ended their roughly three-week strike Saturday after their union and the grocer reached a tentative contract agreement that union leaders say includes increased benefits and pay.
United Food & Commercial Workers Local 7, which represents Safeway workers, said the contract must still be ratified by its members.
“The company has agreed to terminate all temporary replacement workers,” the union said in a statement. “All striking workers are guaranteed to be returned to their same position, classification, seniority and hire date.”

The union didn’t provide details on what the wage increase would be.
The strike began June 15.
