PHOENIX, ARIZONA

Certification 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.
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 April 28, 2006, in response
to a petition filed by a state workforce representative on behalf
of workers of Honeywell International, Inc., Aerospace Division,
Phoenix, Arizona. The workers produced aerospace avionics
products.
The investigation revealed that the preponderance in the
declines in employment at Honeywell International, Inc., Aerospace
Division, Phoenix, Arizona is related to a shift in production of
aerospace avionics products to a country (Singapore) that is a
party to a free trade agreement with the United States.
The investigation revealed that the subject firm also leased
workers on-site from Manpower to produce aerospace avionics
products.
In addition, in accordance with Section 246 of 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 Assistance
(ATAA) for older workers.
In order for the Department to issue a certification of
eligibility to apply for ATAA, the group eligibility requirements
of Section 246 of the Trade Act must be met. The Department has
determined in this case that the requirements of Section 246 have
been met.
A significant number of workers at the firm are age 50 or over
and possess skills that are not easily transferable. Competitive
conditions within the industry are adverse.







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 Singapore of articles that are
like or directly competitive with the aerospace avionics products
produced by the subject firm or subdivision. In accordance with the
provisions of the Act, I make the following certification:
"All workers of Honeywell International, Inc., Aerospace
Division, including on-site leased workers of Manpower,
Phoenix, Arizona who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after April 27, 2005 through two years
from the date of certification are eligible to apply for
adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of
1974 and are also eligible to apply for alternative trade
adjustment assistance under Section 246 of the Trade Act of
1974."
Signed in Washington, D.C., this 9th day of August 2006.
