DYNA-CRAFT INDUSTRIES, INC,
INCLUDING TEMPORARY WORKERS OF
ADECCO
MURRYSVILLE, PENNSYLVANIA
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
September 6, 2002, applicable to workers of Dyna-Craft
Industries, Inc., Murrysville, Pennsylvania. The notice was
published in the Federal Register on September 27, 2002 (67 FR
61161).
At the request of the petitioners, the Department reviewed
the certification for workers of the subject firm. Information
provided by the company shows that temporary workers of Adecco
were working at Dyna-Craft Industries, Inc. to produce stamped
metal frames for semiconductors at the Murrysville, Pennsylvania
location of the subject firm.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending this
certification to include temporary workers of Adecco,
Murrysville, Pennsylvania working at Dyna-Craft Industries, Inc.,
Murrysville, Pennsylvania.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include
all workers of Dyna-Craft Industries, Inc. who were adversely
affected by the shift in production to Malaysia.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-40,980 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of Dyna-Craft Industries, Inc.,
Murrysville, Pennsylvania including temporary workers
of Adecco, Murrysville, Pennsylvania engaged in
employment related to the production of stamped metal
frames for semiconductors at Dyna-Craft Industries,
Inc., Murrysville, Pennsylvania, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after January
20, 2001, through September 6, 2004, are eligible to
apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of
the Trade Act of 1974."
Signed at Washington, D.C. this 7th day of April 2003.

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 on March 11, 2002 in
response to a petition filed on behalf of workers at Dyna-Craft
Industries, Inc., Murrysville, Pennsylvania. Workers are engaged
in activity related to the production of stamped metal frames for
semiconductors.
The investigation revealed that Dyna-Craft Industries shut
down the Murrysville plant in April 2002 and shifted production
to an affiliated facility abroad. The firm’s customers in the
United States are being supplied by imports from the plant
abroad.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I conclude that increases of imports of articles
like or directly competitive with those produced at the subject
firm 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 Dyna-Craft Industries, Inc., Murrysville,
Pennsylvania, who are totally or partially separated on or
after January 20, 2001, through two years from the date of
certification are eligible to apply for adjustment assis-
tance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974."
Signed in Washington, D. C. this 6th day of September 2002.
