Negotiations over higher wages and lower food prices are resuming in the French Caribbean island of Martinique where a monthlong strike has turned violent at times.
Strike leader Michael Monrose says a previous agreement to increase salaries by 200 euros ($252) a month is still being debated.
Monrose said Saturday that unions again are demanding 250 euros ($316).
Police fired tear gas Friday after protesters clashed with employers marching to demand that businesses reopen.
Martinique's appointed leader, Ange Mancini, said four officers were slightly injured, three by bullets.
On the nearby island of Guadeloupe, union leaders have agreed to suspend a 44-day-old strike as most of their demands were being met.
