Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance

In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended (“Act”), 19 U.S.C. § 2273, the Department of Labor herein
presents the results of an investigation regarding certification
of eligibility to apply for worker adjustment assistance.
The group eligibility requirements for workers of a firm
under Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a), are
satisfied if the following criteria are met:
(1) a significant number or proportion of the workers
in such workers' firm have become totally or partially
separated, or are threatened to become totally or
partially separated;
(2)(B)(i)(I) there has been a shift by the workers’
firm to a foreign country in the production of articles
or supply of services like or directly competitive with
those produced/supplied by the workers’ firm; OR
(II) there has been an acquisition from a
foreign country by the workers’ firm of
articles/services that are like or directly
competitive with those produced/supplied by
the workers’ firm; AND
(ii) the shift/acquisition must have contributed
importantly to the workers’ separation or
threat of separation.

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on July 18, 2012 by a company official on behalf of workers
of Ferrara Candy Company, Inc., formerly Farley’s & Sathers Candy
Company, Inc., 3401 Cummings Road, Chattanooga, Tennessee (TA-W-
81,808) and Ferrara Candy Company, Inc., formerly Farley’s &
Sathers Candy Company, Inc., 4120 Jersey Pike, Chattanooga,
Tennessee (TA-W-81,808A). The workers’ firm is engaged in
activities related to the production of candy. The worker group
includes on-site leased workers from Select Staffing Temporary
Service who worked on-site at both locations.
Workers at the 3401 Cummings Road, Chattanooga, Tennessee
location were previously certified under TA-W-73,491. That
certification expired on July 28, 2012.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers’ firm.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant number
or proportion of the workers in such workers’ firm have become
totally or partially separated, or are threatened to become
totally or partially separated.
Section 222(a)(2)(B) has been met because the workers’ firm
has shifted to a foreign country production of articles like or
directly competitive with the candy produced by the workers,
which contributed importantly to worker group separations at
Ferrara Candy Company, Inc.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Ferrara Candy Company,
Inc., formerly Farley’s & Sathers Candy Company, Inc., 3401
Cummings Road, Chattanooga, Tennessee (TA-W-81,808) and 4120
Jersey Pike, Chattanooga, Tennessee (TA-W-81,808A), who are
engaged in activities related to production of candy, meet the
worker group certification criteria under Section 222(a) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a). In accordance with Section 223 of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2273, I make the following certification:
“All workers of Ferrara Candy Company, Inc., formerly
Farley’s & Sathers Candy Company, Inc., including on-site
leased workers from Select Staffing Temporary Service, 3401
Cummings Road, Chattanooga, Tennessee (TA-W-81,808), who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after July 17, 2011, through two years from the date of
certification, and all workers in the group threatened with
total or partial separation from employment on date of
certification through two years from the date of
certification, are eligible to apply for adjustment
assistance under Chapter 2 of Title II of the Trade Act of
1974, as amended,
AND
All workers of Ferrara Candy Company, Inc., formerly
Farley’s & Sathers Candy Company, Inc., including on-site
leased workers from Select Staffing Temporary Service, 4120
Jersey Pike, Chattanooga, Tennessee (TA-W-81,808A) who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after July 29, 2012, through two years from the date of
certification, and all workers in the group threatened with
total or partial separation from employment on the date of
certification through two years from the date of
certification, are eligible to apply for adjustment
assistance under Chapter 2 of Title II of the Trade Act of
1974, as amended.”
