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 August 18, 2003 in
response to a petition filed by a State agency
representative on behalf of a worker at Cincinnati
Advertising Products, Springdale, Ohio. The worker on whose
behalf the petition was filed produced digitized disks for
embroidering apparel.
The investigation revealed that a total separation of
the relevant subdivision occurred and that the shift in
production has resulted in an increase in imports of a like
and competitive product by the subject firm.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that there was a shift in
production from the workers firm or subdivision to Brazil
of articles that are like or directly competitive with
those produced by the subject firm or subdivision, and
there has been or is likely to be 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 Cincinnati Advertising Products, LLC
engaged in digitizing instructions on disks for
embroidering apparel who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after August 5, 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 in Washington, D.C. this 30th day of September 2003.
