Caterpillar Inc., Peoria, Ill., gave the United Auto Workers its "final" contract offer late last week,
and the union held off a scheduled strike by more than 9,000 workers at plants in four states.
Caterpillar said its offer provides "substantial" pay and benefit improvements compared with a proposal rejected by workers in April.
A member of the union's bargaining committee told the Associated Press that a contract vote was scheduled for Aug. 15, and that the union won't be making a recommendation to members about whether to accept or reject the deal.
