Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance
In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended (19 USC 2273), 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 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 April 22, 2003 in response
to a petition filed by a company official on behalf of workers at
Celestica Inc., Westminster, Colorado. The workers at the subject
facility produce system assemblies; they are not separately
identifiable by product line.
The investigation revealed that some of the workers producing
system assemblies were leased workers of Adecco, Westminster,
Colorado.
The preponderance in the declines in employment at the subject
facility is related to a shift in facility production of system
assemblies to a country (Mexico) that is a party to a free trade
agreement with the United States.
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 Mexico of articles that are
like or directly competitive with those produced by the subject
firm or subdivision. In accordance with the provisions of the Act,
I make the following certification:
"All workers of Celestica Inc., Westminster, Colorado, and
leased workers of Adecco Technical producing system assemblies
at Celestica Inc., Westminster, Colorado, who became totally
or partially separated from employment on or after April 21,
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."
