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

applicable to workers of Delphi Corporation, Electronics and
Safety Division, Kokomo, Indiana. The notice was published in
the Federal Register on February 29, 2008 (73 FR 11152). The
certification was amended on October 16, 2008, April 14, 2009,
May 12, 2009 and June 26, 2009 to include on-site leased workers
from Acro Service Corporation, Manpower, Manpower Professional,
Continental, Inc., and Alliance Group Technology. The notices
were published in the Federal Register on October 27, 2008 (73 FR
63733), April 30, 2009 (74 FR 19989), June 16, 2009 (74 FR 28556-
28557), and July 14, 2009 (74 FR 34041), respectively.
At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed
the certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers
are engaged in the production of various types of automobile
components, including: heating, ventilating, air-conditioning
systems (HVAC), amplifiers, mainboards, gas control modules,
hybrid airmeter electronics, hybrid ignition electronics,
pressure sensors, transmission control modules, crash sensing

New information shows that leased workers of Sypris Test and
Measurement, currently known as Tektronix Service Solutions, was
employed on-site at the Kokomo, Indiana location of Delphi
Corporation, Electronics and Safety Division. The Department has
determined that these workers were sufficiently under the control
of Delphi Corporation, Electronics and Safety Division.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending this
certification to include leased workers of Sypris Test and
Measurement, currently known as Tektronix Service Solutions,
working on-site at the Kokomo, Indiana location of the subject
firm.
The intent of the Department’s certification is to include
all workers employed at Delphi Corporation, Electronics and

production Mexico.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-62,760 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of Delphi Corporation, Electronics and
Safety Division, including on-site leased workers from
Acro Service Corporation, Manpower, Manpower

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 January 29, 2008 in
response to a petition filed on behalf of workers of Delphi
Corporation, Electronics and Safety Division, Kokomo, Indiana. The
workers produce various types of automobile components, including:
heating, ventilating, air-conditioning systems (HVAC); amplifiers;
mainboards; gas control modules; hybrid airmeter electronics;
hybrid ignition electronics; pressure sensors; transmission control
modules; crash sensing devices; occupant sensing devices; warning
systems; and semiconductors. The workers are not separately
identifiable by article.
The investigation revealed that employment at the subject firm
declined between 2006 and 2007.
The subject firm has shifted a portion of production of HVAC
systems, amplifiers, and mainboards to a country (Mexico) which is
party to a free trade agreement with the United States.
In accordance with Section 246 of 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
investigation, I determine 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 Delphi Corporation, Electronics and Safety
Division, Kokomo, Indiana, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after January 28, 2007 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.”
