Negative Determination Regarding Eligibility
To Apply For Worker Adjustment Assistance
And Alternative Trade 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 April 17, 2006, in response
to a petition filed by company official on behalf of workers of
Moore Wallace a RR Donnelley Company, National Customer Service
Center in Libertyville and St. Charles, Illinois. The workers
provide customer service support to several company divisions that
produce forms, labels and print fulfillment. They are involved in
servicing the sale of print manufactured by the firm.
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 domestically and there must be a
relationship between the workers' work and the article produced
by the workers' firm or appropriate subdivision. The
investigation revealed that although production of an article(s)
occurred within the firm or appropriate subdivision, the customer
service center workers are engaged in post production activities
and do not support this production. Thus, the worker group can
not be considered import impacted or affected by a shift in
production of an article.
In addition, in accordance with Section 246 the Trade Act of
1974 (26 USC 2813), as amended, the Department of Labor herein
presents the results of its investigation regarding certification
of eligibility to apply for alternative trade adjustment assis-
tance (ATAA) for older workers.
In order for the Department to issue a certification of
eligibility to apply for ATAA, the worker group must be certified
eligible to apply for trade adjustment assistance (TAA). Since
the workers are denied eligibility to apply for TAA, the workers
cannot be certified eligible for ATAA.


Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that all workers of Moore Wallace an
RR Donnelley Company, National Customer Service Center,
Libertyville, Illinois (TA-W-59,221), and Moore Wallace an RR
Donnelley Company, National Customer Service Center, St. Charles,
Illinois, are denied eligibility to apply for adjustment
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, and are
also denied eligibility to apply for alternative trade adjustment
assistance under Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974.
Signed in Washington, D. C. this 27th day of April 2006
