WEITECH, INC.
INCLUDING TEMPORARY WORKERS OF
LABOR READY
SISTERS, OREGON
Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility to
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance
In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19
USC 2273) the Department of Labor issued a Certification of
Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on August
24, 2001, applicable to workers of Weitech, Inc., Sisters,
Oregon. The notice will be published soon in the Federal
Register.
At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed
the certification for workers of the subject firm. Information
provided by the company shows that temporary workers of Labor
Ready were employed at Weitech, Inc. to produce electronic pest
repellers at the Sisters, Oregon location of the subject firm.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending the
certification to include temporary workers of Labor Ready
employed at Weitech, Inc., Sisters, Oregon.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include
all workers of Weitech, Inc. adversely affected by imports.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-39,137 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of Weitech, Inc., Sisters, Oregon
including temporary workers of Labor Ready, Sisters,
Oregon engaged in employment related to the production
of electronic pest repellers at Weitech, Inc., Sisters,
Oregon who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after April 5, 2000, through August
24, 2003, are eligible to apply for adjustment
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974."
Signed at Washington, D.C. this 3rd day of July, 2002.
