The Miami Dolphins have restored employee pay that was reduced because of the NFL labor dispute.

With NFL players voting Monday to approve an agreement, Dolphins employees' salaries have returned to previous levels effective immediately, CEO Mike Dee said. All compensation withheld since reductions took effect May 15 will be returned in full in the next paycheck.

The pay cuts had been blamed on lagging ticket sales resulting from the lockout.
