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 October 19, 2006,
applicable to workers of Delphi Corporation, Automotive Holdings
Group, Columbus, Ohio. The notice was published in the Federal
Register on November 6, 2006 (71 FR 65004).
At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed
the certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers
were engaged in the production of automotive components
(specifically latches, strikers, door modules and power
products).


New information shows that workers leased from 850 Managed
Services, d/b/a/ TAC Automotive Worldwide Companies were employed
on-site at the Columbus, Ohio location of Delphi Corporation,
Automotive Holdings Group. The Department has determined that
these workers were sufficiently under the control of Delphi
Corporation, Automotive Holdings Group to be considered leased
workers.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending this
certification to include workers leased from 850 Managed
Services, Inc., d/b/a TAC Automotive Worldwide Companies working
on-site at the Columbus, Ohio location of the subject firm.
The intent of the Department’s certification is to include
all workers employed at Delphi Corporation, Automotive Holdings
Group, Columbus, Ohio who were adversely affected by a shift in
production of automotive components (specifically latches,
strikers, door modules and power products) to Mexico.


The amended notice applicable to TA-W-60,064 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of Delphi Corporation, Automotive Holdings
Group, including on-site leased workers from 850
Managed Services, Inc., d/b/a TAC Automotive Worldwide
Companies, Columbus, Ohio, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after
September 11, 2005, through October 19, 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 12, 2006, in
response to a petition filed by the United Automotive, Aerospace,
and Agricultural Implement Workers of American, Local 696 on behalf
of workers of Delphi Corporation, Automotive Holdings Group,
Columbus, Ohio. The workers at the subject firm produce automotive
components (specifically latches, strikers, door modules, and power
products), and are not separately identifiable.
This investigation revealed that there was a decline in
employment at the subject firm and a portion of the production was
shifted to Mexico, a country that is party to a free trade
agreement with the United States.
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 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 do not possess skills that are easily transferable. Competitive
conditions within the industry are adverse.



Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I conclude that there has been a shift in production
from Delphi Corporation, Automotive Holdings Group, Columbus, Ohio
to Mexico of articles that are like or directly competitive with
automotive components (latches, strikers, door modules, and power
products) produced by that firm or subdivision. In accordance with
the provisions of the Act, I make the following certification:
"Workers of Delphi Corporation, Automotive Holdings Group,
Columbus, Ohio, engaged in employment related to the
production of latches, strikers, door modules and/or power
products, who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after September 11, 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.”
