DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training Administration
[TA-W-64,666]
Kongsberg Automotive, Formerly Known as Teleflex, Including On-
Site Leased Workers From Labor Finders, the Arnold Group, LSI Staffing
and Richard Weisbart, Haysville, KS; 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 December 29, 2008, applicable to workers of
Kongsberg Automotive, formerly known as Teleflex, Incorporated,
including on-site leased workers from Labor Finders, The Arnold Group,
and LSI Staffing, Haysville, Kansas. The notice was published in the
Federal Register on January 26, 2009 (74 FR 4463).
At the request of the company official, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers produce
injected plastic components for the automotive industry.
New information provided by the company shows that during the
initial investigation, the official inadvertently
[[Page 15754]]
excluded the Richard Weisbart contract with Kongsberg Automotive in
Haysville, Kansas. Mr. Weisbart is the plant manager and is
sufficiently under the control of the subject firm.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers at the subject firm who were adversely affected by the shift in
production to Mexico.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending the
certification to include Richard Weisbart working on-site at the
Haysville, Kansas location of the subject firm.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-64,666 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of Kongsberg Automotive, formerly known as Teleflex,
Incorporated, including on-site leased workers from Labor Finders,
The Arnold Group, LSI Staffing, and Richard Weisbart, Haysville,
Kansas, who became totally or partially separated from employment on
or after December 9, 2007, through December 29, 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 31st day of March 2009.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
