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, the Department of Labor herein presents the
results of an investigation regarding certification of eligibility
to apply for worker adjustment assistance as a secondarily affected
worker group.
In order to make an affirmative determination and issue a
certification of eligibility for secondary workers to apply for
Trade Adjustment Assistance, the group eligibility requirements of
paragraph (b) of Section 222 of the Trade Act, as amended, must be
met. It is determined in this case that the requirements of (b) of
Section 222, as amended, have been met.
The investigation was initiated on September 12, 2003 in
response to a petition filed by a company official on behalf of
workers at the 4 D's Industries, Tellico Plains, Tennessee. The
workers of the subject firm produce men's, women's, and children's
apparel.
The investigation revealed that 4 D's Industries, Tellico
Plains, Tennessee, supplies apparel, and at least 20 percent of its
production or sales is supplied to a manufacturer whose workers
were certified eligible to apply for adjustment assistance.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of the 4 D's Industries,
Tellico Plains, Tennessee qualify as adversely affected secondary
workers under Section 222 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended. In
accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the following
certification:
"All workers of the 4 D's Industries, Tellico Plains,
Tennessee who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after September 4, 2002, 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 at Washington, D.C., this 30th day of October 2003.
