Nearly 40,000 Verizon workers in nine Eastern states and the District of Columbia remained on strike Friday, more than two weeks after walking off the job over pay, health benefits and the offshoring of jobs.

On Thursday, the company offered members of the unions, the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers and the Communications Workers of America, a 7.5 percent pay increase over the term of the contract, up from its previous offer of 6.5 percent and a deal the company has described as its "last, best, final offer."

A New York Times report notes the unions striking mostly represent workers for the wireline operations ? which include landline, high-speed Internet and television services. Subscribers to Verizon?s cell phone service shouldn?t notice any changes.

?But judging from numbers alone, Verizon?s wireline customers can reasonably expect a deterioration in customer service quality,? the Times wrote. ?Even with preparation, the company said it has trained only upward of 10,000 employees to fill in for the nearly 36,000 workers who went on strike. In addition, many unionized workers who are striking have been doing this type of work for far longer than the one year that Verizon has trained nonunion workers to fill in.?
