INCLUDING ON-SITE LEASED WORKERS FROM ADECCO EMPLOYMENT
OLEAN, NEW YORK
Amended 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
issued a Certification of Eligibility to Apply for Worker
Adjustment Assistance on January 27, 2014, applicable to
workers of Eaton Corporation, Cooper Power Systems, Power
Delivery Division, Olean, New York. The workers were engaged
in activities related to the production of components and
protective equipment consisting of surge arresters. The notice
was published in the Federal Register on February 24, 2014
(79 FR 10187).
At the request of the State of New York, the Department
reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm.
Information from the subject firm shows that workers leased
from Adecco Employment were employed on-site at Eaton Corporation,
Cooper Power Systems, Power Delivery Division, Olean, New York.
The Department has determined that these workers were sufficiently
under the control of Eaton Corporation, Cooper Power Systems, Power
Delivery Division, Olean, New York to be considered leased workers.
The intent of the Department’s certification is to include
all workers of the subject firm who were adversely affected by a
shift in production abroad of components and protective equipment
consisting of surge arresters.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending this
certification to include workers leased from Adecco Employment
working on-site at the Olean, New York location of the subject firm.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-83,312 is hereby issued
as follows:
"All workers from Eaton Corporation, Cooper Power Systems,
Power Delivery Division, including on-site leased workers from
Adecco Employment, Olean, New York, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after December 18, 2012, through
January 27, 2016, 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 1074, as amended.”

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 December 19, 2013 by a one-stop operator/partner on
behalf of workers of Eaton Corporation, Cooper Power Systems,
Power Delivery Division, Olean, New York. The workers' firm is
engaged in activities related to the production of components
and protective equipment consisting of surge arresters. The
arresters, in some cases, are used on or in transformers.
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 the production of an
article like or directly competitive with the article produced
by the workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at Eaton Corporation, Cooper Power Systems, Power
Delivery Division, Olean, New York.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Eaton Corporation,
Cooper Power Systems, Power Delivery Division, Olean, New
York, who are engaged in activities related to the production of
components and protective equipment consisting of surge
arresters 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 Eaton Corporation, Cooper Power Systems,
Power Delivery Division, Olean, New York, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
December 18, 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."
