DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training Administration
[TA-W-63,575]
Philips Consumer Lifestyle, Including On-Site Leased Workers From
Ryder Integrated Logistics, Ledgewood, NJ; 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 July 16, 2008, applicable to workers of
Philips Consumer Lifestyle, Ledgewood, New Jersey. The notice was
published in the Federal Register on July 30, 2008 (73 FR 44284). The
certification was amended on September 12, 2008 to include employees of
the subject firm working at various locations in multiple States (TA-W-
63,575A--TA-W-63,575H). The notice was published in the Federal
Register on September 23, 2008 (73 FR 54859-54860).
At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers were engaged
in the production of antennas and packaged electronic accessories.
New information shows that workers leased from Ryder Integrated
Logistics were employed on-site at the Ledgewood, New Jersey location
of Philips Consumer Lifestyle. 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 workers leased from Ryder Integrated Logistics
working on-site at the Ledgewood, New Jersey location of the subject
firm.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of Philips Consumer Lifestyle who were adversely affected by a
shift in production of antennas and packaged electronic accessories to
China.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-63,575 is hereby issued as
follows:
``All workers of Philips Consumer Lifestyle, including on-site
leased workers from Ryder Integrated Logistics, Ledgewood, New
Jersey, who became totally or partially separated from employment on
or after June 18, 2007, through July 16, 2010, 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 2nd day of March 2009.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
