Negative Determinations 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.
The investigation was initiated on September 12, 2005, in
response to a petition filed by on behalf of workers of Ryder
Integrated Systems, Webster, New York. The workers were engaged in
transportation and logistics services.
The investigation revealed that Ryder Integrated Systems,
Webster, New York, does not produce an article within the meaning
of Section 222(a)(2) of the Act. In order to be considered
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of
the Trade Act of 1974, the worker group seeking certification (or
on whose behalf certification is being sought) must work for a
"firm" or appropriate subdivision that produces an article and
there must be a relationship between the workers' work and the
article produced by the workers' firm or appropriate subdivision.
The transportation and logistics workers described above does not
support a firm or appropriate subdivision that produces an article
domestically and thus the worker group can not be considered import
impacted or affected by a shift in production of an article.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts in this investigation, I
determine that all workers of Ryder Integrated Systems, Webster,
New York are denied eligibility to apply for adjustment assistance
under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.
Signed in Washington, D.C., this 21st day of October 2005.
