PHILADELPHIA MIXERS
PALMYRA, PENNSYLVANIA
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 in response to a petition
received on February 11, 2002 and filed by the International
Association of Machinist and Aerospace Workers, Local Lodge 2367,
District 98, on behalf of workers at Philadelphia Mixers,
Palmyra, Pennsylvania. The workers produced mixers used in
construction work.
The investigation revealed that sales, production and
employment declined during the relevant period.
It was further revealed that the subject firm has increased
its imports of mixers from various foreign sources.
A NAFTA Transitional Adjustment petition has been filed on
behalf of workers at the subject firm (NAFTA-5838).
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 mixers produced at Philadelphia Mixers,
Palmyra, Pennsylvania, 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 Philadelphia Mixers, Palmyra, Pennsylvania,
who became totally or partially separated from employment on
or after January 30, 2001 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 18th day of March, 2002.
