FOXCONN ASSEMBLY, LLC
HOUSTON, TEXAS
Notice of Affirmative Determination
Regarding Application for Reconsideration
By application dated December 9, 2015, the Department of
Labor (Department) received a request for administrative
reconsideration of the Department’s Notice of Termination of
Investigation regarding workers’ eligibility to apply for Trade
Adjustment Assistance (TAA) applicable to workers and former
workers of the subject firm. The determination was issued on
November 13, 2015. The determination was based on the
Department’s finding that the petitioning workers are eligible
to apply for adjustment assistance under an existing
certification.
In the request for reconsideration, the State of Texas
stated that the workers who filed the petition are not part of
the certified worker group at 8801 Fallbrook Drive, Houston,
Texas but are part of a separately identifiable worker group at
8807 Fallbrook Drive, Houston, Texas.
The Department has carefully reviewed the request for
reconsideration and the existing record, and has determined that
the Department will conduct further investigation to determine
if the workers meet the eligibility requirements of the Trade
Act of 1974, as amended.
Conclusion
After careful review of the application, I conclude that
the claim is of sufficient weight to justify reconsideration of
the U.S. Department of Labor's prior decision. The application
is, therefore, granted.
Signed at Washington, D.C., this 20th day of May, 2016
