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 December 8, 2006 in response to
a petition filed on behalf of workers of E*TRADE Mortgage Corporation,
Coraopolis, Pennsylvania. The workers of the subject facility provide
loan processing and underwriting services.
E*TRADE Mortgage Corporation also leased workers from Manpower
Radian to provide loan processing and underwriting services on-site.
The investigation revealed that the subject facility does not
produce an article within the meaning of Section 222(a)(2) of the Act.
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
and there must be a relationship between the workers' work and the
article produced by the workers' firm or appropriate subdivision. The
subject worker group does not support a firm or appropriate subdivision
that produces an article domestically and 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 assistance (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 E*TRADE Mortgage Corporation, including
leased workers from Manpower and Radian, Coraopolis, Pennsylvania, 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.
