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 an investigation regarding certification of eligibility
to apply for worker adjustment assistance as a secondarily affected
worker group.
In order to make an affirmative determination and issue a
certification of eligibility for secondary workers to apply for
Trade Adjustment Assistance, the group eligibility requirements of
paragraph (b) of Section 222 of the Trade Act, as amended, must be
met. It is determined in this case that the requirements of (b) of
Section 222, as amended, have been met.
The investigation was initiated on February 17, 2004 in
response to a petition filed on behalf of workers at Flextronics,
San Diego, California. The workers produced encoders.
The investigation revealed that Flextronics, San Diego,
California supplied encoders used in the production of digital
media systems, and at least 20 percent of its production or sales
is supplied to a manufacturer whose workers were certified eligible
to apply for adjustment assistance.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Flextronics, San Diego,
California qualify as adversely affected secondary workers under
Section 222 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended. In accordance
with the provisions of the Act, I make the following certification:
"All workers of Flextronics, San Diego, California who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
February 12, 2003, 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 at Washington, D.C., this 4th day of March 2004.
