Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply For Worker Adjustment Assistance and
Negative Determination Regarding Eligibility To Apply For
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 an investigation regarding certification of eligibility
to apply for worker adjustment assistance as a secondarily affected
worker group.
In order to make an affirmative determination and issue a
certification of eligibility for secondary workers to apply for
Trade Adjustment Assistance, the group eligibility requirements of
paragraph (b) of Section 222 of the Trade Act, as amended, must be
met. It is determined in this case that the requirements of (b) of
Section 222, as amended, have been met.
The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
received on October 9, 2007 and filed on behalf of workers of WCZ,
LLC, Bensenville Division, a subsidiary of Quebecor World (USA)
Inc., Bensenville, Illinois. The workers were engaged in the
binding of printed material, in a vertically integrated process,
received from affiliated facilities certified eligible to apply for
trade adjustment assistance.
Evidence revealed that Quebecor World, Chicago Division, Elk
Grove, Illinois and Quebecor World, Brookfield, Wisconsin, to whom
the petitioning workers' firm or subdivision acts as a downstream
producer, employed a group of workers who received a certification
of eligibility for trade adjustment assistance based on an increase
in imports from, or a shift in production to, Canada or Mexico, and
the downstream production is related to the article that was the
basis for such certification.
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.
The group eligibility criteria for the ATAA program

that the Department must consider under Section 246 of the

Trade Act are:
1. Whether a significant number of workers in the
workers' firm are 50 years of age or older.
2. Whether the workers in the workers' firm possess skills
that are not easily transferable.
3. The competitive conditions within the workers' industry
(i.e., conditions within the industry are adverse).
The Department has determined that criterion 2 has not been
met.
The investigation revealed workers in the workers' firm do
possess skills that are easily transferable.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of WCZ, LLC, Bensenville
Division, a subsidiary of Quebecor World (USA) Inc., Bensenville,
Illinois qualify as adversely affected secondary workers under
Section 222(b) of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended. In accordance
with the provisions of the Act, I make the following certification:
"All workers of WCZ, LLC, Bensenville Division, a subsidiary
of Quebecor World (USA) Inc., Bensenville, Illinois who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
October 4, 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
I further determine that all workers of WCZ, LLC, Bensenville
Division, a subsidiary of Quebecor World (USA) Inc., Bensenville,
Illinois are denied eligibility to apply for alternative trade
adjustment assistance under Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974.
Signed at Washington, D.C., this 3rd day of December 2007
