BURBANK, Calif.—After four months of talks, Disney has reached a tentative contract agreement with four unions representing thousands of its workers at the company’s California theme parks and resorts, avoiding a looming strike.

The tentative three-year agreement reached on July 23 must still be approved by the 14,000 members of the union coalition, in a vote set for July 29.
