Verizon Communications Inc. missed its midnight deadline to secure a deal with more than 37,000 union employees in nine states, but the unions said employees will keep working without a contract while talks continue.

Verizon's two largest unions, the Communications Workers of America and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, went on a two-week strike the last time the sides negotiated a new contract, in 2011.

Verizon is looking to reduce retirement benefits and wants employees to shoulder more health-care costs. The unions want added benefits in those areas as well as job security provisions.

The unions only cover the company's wireline technicians and wireline call center staff.
