SARASOTA, FLORIDA

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 14, 2006 in
response to a petition filed by a company official on behalf of
workers at Parker Hannifin Corporation, Gear Pump Division,
Sarasota, Florida. The workers produce motor vehicle gear pumps.
The worker group includes leased workers of Kelly Temp Services.
The investigation revealed that declines in employment at the
subject facility are related to a shift in production of gear pumps
abroad, including to a country (Mexico) that is party to a free
trade agreement 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.
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 investi-
gation, I conclude 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 Parker Hannifin Corporation, Gear Pump
Division, including leased workers of Kelly Temp Services,
Sarasota, Florida, who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after September 13, 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 6th day of October, 2006
