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 March 18, 2004 in response
to a petition filed by a company official on behalf of workers at
Tyco Electronics, Computer Communications and Consumer Electronics
(CC&CE) Division, Elcon Power Connector Products Group,
Manufacturing Division, A subsidiary of Tyco International, Menlo
Park, California. This worker group produced power connectors.
The preponderance in the declines in employment at the subject
facility is related to a shift in production of power connectors 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 Tyco Electronics, Computer Communications and
Consumer Electronics (CC&CE) Division, Elcon Power Connector
Products Group, Manufacturing Division, A subsidiary of Tyco
International, Menlo Park, California who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after January 4,
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 in Washington, D.C. this 2nd day of April 2004.
