HARTING MANUFACTURING, INC.
ELGIN, ILLINOIS
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 September 30, 2002 in
response to a petition filed by a company official on behalf of
workers at Harting Manufacturing, Inc., Elgin, Illinois. The
workers were engaged in employment related to the production of
cable assemblies and related components for the telecommuni-
cation and electronics industries. The workers were not
separately identifiable by product line.
The investigation revealed that plant production and
employment declined during the relevant period.
The investigation further revealed that the company
increased their reliance on imported cable assemblies and related
components 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 the cable assemblies and related
components at Harting Manufacturing, Inc., Elgin, Illinois,
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 Harting Manufacturing, Inc., Elgin,
Illinois, who became totally or partially separated from em-
ployment on or after September 19, 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 24th day of October, 2002.
