WHITE PLAINS-Members of Local 32E Service Employees International Union went back on the job on Wednesday morning after their union reached a tentative three-year contract agreement with the Building and Realty Institute of Westchester and the Mid-Hudson region.

Local 32E has scheduled a vote on the proposed contract on Friday Oct. 13, according to Matthew Persanis, an attorney who represented the Building and Realty Institute. The pact calls for about a 4% increase in wages and benefits each year, Persanis says.
