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)(A) of Section 222 have been met.
The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
initiated on January 24, 2003 and filed on behalf of workers at
Shinei USA, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Shinei
International, a wholly owned subsidiary of Solectron Corp.,
including leased workers of Kelly Services, Hillsboro, Oregon.
The investigation revealed that employment, sales and
production declined at the subject firm from 2001 to 2002.
The investigation also revealed that imports of electronic
enclosures by the subject firm increased during the relevant
time period.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I conclude that increases of imports of articles
like or directly competitive with electronic enclosures produced
by Shinei USA, Inc., Hillsboro, Oregon, contributed importantly
to the total or partial separation of workers and to the decline
in sales or production and at that firm. In accordance with the
provisions of the Act, I make the following certification:
"All workers of Shinei USA, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary
of Shinei International, a wholly owned subsidiary of
Solectron Corp., Hillsboro, Oregon and leased workers of
Kelly Services producing electronic enclosures at Shinei
USA, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Shinei
International, a wholly owned subsidiary of Solectron
Corp., Hillsboro, Oregon who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after January 2, 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, as amended."
Signed in Washington, D. C. this 17th day of June 2003.
