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 20, 2007, applicable
to workers of Delphi Corporation, Automotive Holding Group,
Chassis Business Support Functions, Kettering, Ohio. The notice
was published in the Federal Register on October 3, 2007 (72 FR
56384). The notice was amended on April 30, 2008 to include on-
site leased workers from Kforce Staffing. The notice was
published on the Federal Register on May 13, 2008 (73 FR 27557-
27558)
At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed
the certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers
provide a variety of business services for an automotive brake
parts manufacturing facility.
New information shows that leased workers of Alliance
Technical Services were employed on-site at the Kettering, Ohio
location of Delphi Corporation, Automotive Holding Group, Chassis
Business Support Functions. The Department has determined that
these workers were sufficiently under the control of the subject
firm to be considered leased workers.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending this
certification to include leased workers of Alliance Technical
Services working on-site at the Kettering, Ohio location of the
subject firm.
The intent of the Department’s certification is to include
all workers employed at Delphi Corporation, Automotive Holding
Group, Chassis Business Support Functions, Kettering, Ohio who
were adversely affected by increased imports.



The amended notice applicable to TA-W-61,945 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of Delphi Corporation, Automotive Holdings
Group, Chassis Business Support Functions, including
on-site leased workers from Kforce Staffing and
Alliance Technical Services, Kettering, Ohio,
(excluding workers of Delphi at other Kettering, Ohio
Locations: Delphi Corporation, Automotive Holdings
Group, Formerly Delphi Energy Chassis Systems Division,
Kettering, Ohio (TA-W-57,754) and Delphi Corporation,
Automotive Holdings Group, Chassis Division, Kettering,
Ohio (TA-W-61,950), who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after August 3, 2006,
through September 20, 2009, 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 at Washington, D.C. this 15th day of October 2009.

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), as amended, the Department of Labor herein presents the
results of its 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) (A)
of Section 222 have been met.
The investigation was initiated on August 7, 2007 in response
to a petition filed by a company official on behalf of workers of
Delphi Corporation, Automotive Holdings Group, Chassis Business
Support Functions, Kettering, Ohio. The workers of the subject
firm provide a variety of business services for an automotive brake
parts manufacturing facility. These services include engineering,
designing, human resources, management logistics, sales, and
purchasing.
This petition is for workers not already covered under TA-W-
57,754, Delphi Corporation, Automotive Holdings Group, Formerly
Delphi Energy Chassis System Division, Kettering, Ohio or TA-W-
61,950, Delphi Corporation, Automotive Holdings Group, Chassis
Division, Kettering, Ohio.
Employment at the subject firm declined from August 3, 2006 as
compared to August 3, 2007.
The investigation revealed that the decline in employment at
the subject firm is related to the increased imports of automotive
brake parts like or directly competitive with those produced by the
Delphi Corporation, Automotive Holding Group, Needmore Road, Plant
3, Dayton, Ohio. Workers of the Delphi facility, in Dayton, Ohio
were certified eligible to apply for adjustment assistance on
November 30, 2006 under petition number TA-W-60,041.
In addition, in accordance with Section 246 the Trade Act of
1974 (26 USC 2813), as amended, the Department of Labor here in
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 increases of imports of articles
like or directly competitive with automotive brake parts produced
by Delphi Corporation contributed importantly to the decline in
sales or production and to the total or partial separation of
workers of that firm or subdivision


In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the
following certification:
"All workers of Delphi Corporation, Automotive Holdings Group,
Chassis Business Support Functions, Kettering, Ohio (excluding
workers of Delphi at other Kettering Ohio locations: Delphi
Corporation, Automotive Holdings Group, Formerly Delphi Energy
Chassis Systems Division, Kettering, Ohio (TA-W-57,754), and
Delphi Corporation, Automotive Holdings Group, Chassis
Division, Kettering, Ohio (TA-W-61,950)), who became totally
or partially separated from employment on or after August 3,
2006 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 20th day of September, 2007.
