GRAPHICS DIVISION
HUBER HEIGHTS, OHIO
NOW A SUBSIDIARY OF AVERY DENNISON CORPORATION
NOW LOCATED IN MIAMISBURG, OHIO

Amended 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 (19
USC 2273), and Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 (26 USC
2813), as amended, the Department of Labor issued a Certification
of Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and
Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance on September 14, 2006,
applicable to workers of Paxar Corporation, Graphics Division,
Huber Heights, Ohio. The notice was published in the Federal
Register on September 26, 2006 (71 FR 56172)
At the request of a company official, the Department
reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm. The
workers are engaged in the production of printed paper tags and
other printed products that are used for apparel identification.
New information shows that on June 15, 2007, Paxar
Corporation merged with Avery Dennison and is now known as Paxar
Corporation, a subsidiary of Avery Dennison Corporation.
Information also shows that the subject firm previously located
in Huber Heights, Ohio has relocated to Miamisburg, Ohio.
Workers separated from employment at the subject firm will
continue to have their wages reported under the unemployment
insurance (UI) tax account for Paxar Corporation through 2007.
Accordingly, the Department is amending this certification to
properly reflect this matter.
The intent of the Department’s certification is to include
all workers of Paxar Corporation, Graphics Division, now a
subsidiary of Avery Dennison Corporation, who were adversely
affected by a shift in production to Mexico.



The amended notice applicable to TA-W-59,999 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of Paxar Corporation, Graphics Division, Huber
Heights, Ohio, now known as Paxar Corporation - a subsidiary
of Avery Dennison Corporation, and now located in
Miamisburg, Ohio, who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after August 31, 2005, through
September 14, 2008, 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.”

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 September 1, 2006 in
response to a petition filed on behalf of workers of Paxar
Corporation, Graphics Division, Huber Heights, Ohio. The workers
produce printed paper tags and other printed products that are used
for apparel identification.
The investigation revealed that employment at the subject firm
declined in the relevant periods.
The subject firm has shifted a significant proportion of
production abroad, including to countries (Mexico, Honduras) which
are parties to free trade agreements with the United States.
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 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.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine 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 Paxar Corporation, Graphics Division, Huber
Heights, Ohio who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after August 31, 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.”
