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)(B) of
Section 222 have been met.
The investigation was initiated on March 24, 2008 in response
to a petition filed on behalf of workers of Eaton Corporation, Fuel
Emission and Safety Controls, Oxford, Michigan. The workers produce
fuel valves and specialty actuators, particularly fuel vapor
components, vent window regulators, and other automotive specialty
control products.
The investigation revealed Eaton Corporation also leased
workers from Kelly Services, Aerotek Commercial Staffing and
Accountemps.
The investigation also revealed that the preponderance of
declines in employment at the subject facility is related to a
shift in production of fuel valves and specialty actuators 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
investigation, I determine that was a shift in production from the
workers' firm or subdivision to Mexico of articles like or directly
competitive with fuel valves and specialty actuators produced by
Eaton Corporation, Fuel Emission and Safety Controls, Oxford,
Michigan. In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the
following certification:
"All workers of Eaton Corporation, Fuel Emission and Safety
Controls, Oxford, Michigan, including on-site leased workers from
Kelly Services, Aerotek Commercial Staffing and Accountemps, who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or after
March 18, 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."
Signed in Washington, D.C., this 4th day of April 2008
