The year-long strike by Stella D'Oro workers may be coming to an end.

The National Labor Relations Board has ordered the owners of the Bronx cookie company to reinstate the workers, give them back pay for the wages they have lost since going on strike in August, and return to the bargaining table.

The workers say the new contract will reduce wages by 25 percent and eliminate overtime, sick days and holidays.

NY1 reached out to Stella D'Oro for comment and is waiting for a response.
