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 on October 14, 2003 in
response to a petition filed on behalf of workers of Analog
Devices, Final Test Department, Santa Clara, California. Workers
produced semiconductors for signal processing applications.
The investigation revealed that the company shifted production
from the subject Department to a company-owned foreign facility and
is now importing product previously produced at the subject
Department. Layoffs occurred as a result of the shift in
production.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that increases of imports of articles
like or directly competitive with semiconductors for signal
processing applications produced at Analog Devices, Final Test
Department, Santa Clara, California contributed importantly to the
total or partial separation of workers and to the decline in sales
or production at that firm or subdivision. In accordance with the
provisions of the Act, I make the following certification:
"All workers of Analog Devices, Final Test Department, Santa
Clara, California who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after October 10, 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 21st day of November 2003.
