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), 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 April 4, 2008 in response
to a petition filed on behalf of workers of Honeywell
International, Inc., Honeywell Aerospace Division, Avionics Group,
Integrated Supply Chain, Redmond, Washington. The workers produce
avionics equipment.
The investigation revealed that employment in the subject
worker group declined from 2006 to 2007 and in January through
March 2008 compared with the same period in 2007.
The subject firm is shifting production of avionics equipment
from the Redmond Integrated Supply Chain to Indonesia. The
equipment produced overseas will be imported into the United States
prior to sale to customers.
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 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 determine that that there was a shift in
production from the subject firm to Indonesia of articles that are
like or directly competitive with those produced by the subject
firm, and there has been or is likely to be an increase in imports
of like or directly competitive articles. In accordance with the
provisions of the Act, I make the following certification:
"All workers of Honeywell International, Inc., Honeywell
Aerospace Division, Avionics Group, Integrated Supply Chain,
Redmond, Washington who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after March 26, 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 29th day of April 2008
