DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training Administration
[TA-W-61,962L]
Hanesbrands, Inc., Forest City Division, Including On-Site Leased
Workers From Diversco Integrated Services, Forest City, NC; 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, as amended
(19 U.S.C. 2273), 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., Forest City Division, Forest City, North
Carolina. 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 Diversco Integrated
Services were employed on-site at the Forest City Division, Forest
City, North Carolina, location of Hanesbrands, 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 Diversco Integrated
Services working on-site at the Forest City Division, Forest City,
North Carolina, location of the subject firm.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers employed at Hanesbrands, Inc., Forest City 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-61,962L is hereby issued as
follows:
``All workers of Hanesbrands, Inc., Forest City Division, Forest
City, North Carolina, including on-site leased workers from Diversco
Integrated Services, Forest City, North Carolina, who became totally
or partially separated from employment on or after August 7, 2006,
through September 13, 2009, are eligible to apply for trade
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 9th day of December 2008.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
