Nov 11 (Reuters) - The New York Times Tech Guild

is ending a week-long strike that started one day before the

U.S. presidential election and will return to work on Tuesday,

it said in a post on X on Monday.

More than 600 tech workers of NYT, including software

engineers, designers and product managers, had gone on a strike

amid stalled contract negotiations over pay and job security,

planning daily protests during the crucial election day period.

Negotiations between the guild and the publisher have not

progressed since the strike began, the spokesperson for the New

York Times ( NYT ) said in an email response.

"We look forward to continuing to work with Tech Guild to

reach a fair contract that takes into account that they are

already among the highest paid individual contributors in the

company," the spokesperson said.

The Tech Guild has been in contract negotiations with NYT

for more than two years.

"We clearly demonstrated how valuable our work is to The New

York Times ( NYT ), especially on election night, and showed that we

have the full support of subscribers and allies across the

country going forward," said Kathy Zhang, Tech Guild unit chair.
