DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training Administration
[TA-W-54,800A]
Johnson Controls, Inc., Southview Plant, Door Panel Line,
Including Leased Workers of Kelly Services, Holland, MI; Notice of
Revised Determination on Reconsideration
By letter dated July 16, 2004, a company official requested
administrative reconsideration regarding the Departments Negative
Determination Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment
Assistance and Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance (ATAA),
applicable to the workers of the subject firm. The determination
covering workers of Johnson Controls, Inc., Southview Plant, Sun Visor
Line and Door Panel Line, including leased workers of Kelly Services,
Holland, Michigan, (TA-W-54,800 and TA-W-54,800A) certified the Sun
Visor Line for TAA and ATAA but denied TAA and ATAA certification to
the Door Panel Line.
The Department's determination was signed on June 23, 2004. The
Department's Notice of Determination was published in the Federal
Register on August 3, 2004 (69 FR 46574).
The initial investigation determined that workers of the Sun Visor
Line are separately identifiable from the Door Panel Line.
On reconsideration the company contact alleged that the workers of
the Sun Visor Line are not separately identifiable from the Door Panel
Line. Further contact with the company established that the workers of
Johnson Controls, Inc., Southview Plant, Sun Visor Line and Door Panel
Line, Holland, Michigan are not separately identifiable by product
line.
Conclusion
After careful review of the additional facts obtained on
reconsideration, I conclude that workers are not separately
identifiable at the subject firm and that a shift in production of
another article produced at the Holland, Michigan contributed to the
total or partial separation of workers at the subject firm. In
accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the following
certification:
``All workers of Johnson Controls, Inc., Southview Plant, Door
Panel Line, Holland, Michigan, including leased workers of Kelly
Services working onsite at the subject facility, who became totally
or partially separated from employment on or after April 8, 2003
through June 23, 2006, 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, DC this 24th day of September 2004.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
