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 its 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 Trade Adjustment
Assistance, the group eligibility requirements in either paragraph
(a)(2)(A) or (a)(2)(B) of Section 222 of the Trade Act must be met.
It is determined in this case that the requirements of (a)(2)(B) of
Section 222 have been met.
The investigation was initiated on December 10, 2002, in
response to a petition filed by a company official on behalf of
workers of Mitsubishi Electric Automation, Inc., Vernon Hills,
Illinois. The workers produce printed circuit boards (PBC's).
The investigation revealed that a shift in production from the
subject facility to a foreign country (Japan) occurred during the
period of investigation, and layoffs at the subject plant resulted
from this shift in production.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I conclude that there was a shift in production from
the workers' firm or subdivision to Japan of articles that are like
or directly competitive with those produced by the subject firm or
subdivision, and there has been an increase in imports of like or
directly competitive articles. In accordance with the provisions of
the Act, I make the following certification:
"All workers of Mitsubishi Electric Automation, Inc., Vernon
Hills, Illinois who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after December 9, 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, as
amended."
Signed in Washington, D.C. this 26th day of March, 2003.
