Legend: Temporary garbage drop-off Permanent garbage drop-off

Bombardier Inc. and the Canadian Auto Workers Union members at the company's de Havilland aircraft manufacturing plant in Toronto reached a tentative agreement Tuesday afternoon.

The company was not successful in two areas it was targetting — hiring more temporary workers who wouldn't be covered by the union contract and cutting retiree benefits, union spokesmen said.

"We were under a lot of pressure to make concessions, but were able to resist these demands," Merv Gray, CAW Local 112 Bombardier plant chairman, said in a news release.

The union did get wage increases, but details weren't released.

The CAW had set a 10 a.m. ET strike deadline, but the parties continued to talk Tuesday.

The union represents 2,750 workers at the company's Downsview plant, which makes two complete aircraft — Bombardier's Q400 turboprop and its Global Express business jet — as well as the wing for the Learjet 45.

Negotiations began two months ago. Union members include production workers, skilled trades and office workers.

A ratification meeting is set for June 28.
