Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance
In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19
USC 2273) as amended by the Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act
of 1988 (P. L. 100-418), the Department of Labor herein presents
the results of an investigation regarding certification of
eligibility to apply for worker adjustment assistance.
In order to make an affirmative determination and issue a
certification of eligibility to apply for adjustment assistance
each of the group eligibility requirements of Section 222 of the
Act must be met. It is determined in this case that all of the
requirements have been met.
The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
received on November 27, 2000, and filed on behalf of workers at
Tyco Electronics, Sanford, Maine. The workers produced electrical
terminal blocks.
Findings of the investigation revealed that the subject firm
is relying on imported terminal blocks. That reliance has
contributed importantly to separations of workers at the subject
plant.
A petition for NAFTA Transitional Adjustment has been filed on
behalf of workers at the subject firm (NAFTA - 4326). A determina-
tion on that petition will be made concurrently with this decision.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I conclude that increases of imports of articles
like or directly competitive with terminal blocks produced by Tyco
Electronics, Sanford, Maine contributed importantly to the decline
in sales or production and to the total or partial separation of
workers of that firm. In accordance with the provisions of the
Act, I make the following certification:
"All workers of Tyco Electronics, Sanford, Maine, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
November 7, 1999, through two years from the date of
certification are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance
under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974."
Signed in Washington, D. C. this 14th day of December, 2000.
