DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-61,962C]

 
Hanesbrands, Inc., Tamaqua Division, Including On-Site Leased 
Workers From Kelly Services and Job Connections, Tamaqua, PA; Amended 
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 U.S.C. 
2273), and Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 (26 U.S.C. 2813), as 
amended, the Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility 
to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and Alternative Trade 
Adjustment Assistance on September 13, 2007, applicable to workers of 
Hanesbrands, Inc., Tamaqua Division, Tamaqua, Pennsylvania. The notice 
was published in the Federal Register on September 27, 2007 (72 FR 
54939).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers are engaged 
in a variety of support activities related to the firm's production of 
laminated fabric and fabric components.
    New information shows that workers leased from Kelly Services and 
Job Connections were employed on-site at the Tamaqua Division, Tamaqua, 
Pennsylvania location of Henesbrands, Inc.
    The Department has determined that these workers were sufficiently 
under the control of the subject firm to be considered leased workers.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include leased workers from Kelly Services and Job 
Connections working on-site at the Tamaqua Division, Tamaqua, 
Pennsylvania location of the subject firm.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers employed at Hanesbrands, Inc., Tamaqua Division who were 
adversely affected by a shift in production of laminated fabric and 
fabric components to El Salvador, the Dominican Republic and Honduras.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-61,962C is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of Hanesbrands, Inc., Tamaqua Division, including 
on-site leased workers from Kelly Services and Job Connections, 
Tamaqua, Pennsylvania, who

[[Page 54861]]

became totally or partially separated from employment on or after 
August 7, 2006, through September 13, 2009, 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 at Washington, DC, this 12th day of September 2008.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
