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 eligi-
bility 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 on April 2, 2001, and filed
by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW),
Local 2188 on behalf of workers at Avaya Inc., formerly known as
Lucent Technologies, Shreveport, Louisiana. The workers produced
telephones and circuit boards.
This investigation revealed that sales, production and
employment declined at the subject plant during the relevant
periods.
The company increased their imports of telephones and
circuit boards during the relevant period.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the investi-
gation, I conclude that increases of imports of articles like or
directly competitive with telephones and circuit boards produced
at Avaya Inc., formerly known as Lucent Technologies, Shreveport,
Louisiana, contributed importantly to the decline in sales or
production and to the total or partial separation of workers of
the subject firm. In accordance with the provisions of the Act,
I make the following certification:
"All workers of Avaya Inc., formerly known as Lucent
Technologies, Shreveport, Louisiana, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after March 15,
2000, 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 30th day of April, 2001.
