It took more than a month now the strike is over.
Pantex guards voted to approve a new contract.
Earlier today, the union voted to approve a new 5 year labor agreement.
Guards have been on strike since april 16th, when they rejected a previous 5-year contract the company offered them.
The new contract includes increased wages and employee cost sharing for health insurance.
The union says the new contract affirms the guards contributions to national security.
