DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-63,957]

 
Phillips Plastics Corporation, Precision Decorating Facility, 
Including On-Site Leased Workers From Manpower, Medford, WI; 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 October 31, 2008, applicable to workers of 
Phillips Plastics Corporation, Precision Decorating Facility, Medford, 
Wisconsin. The notice was published in the Federal Register on November 
13, 2008 (73 FR 67209).
    At the request of the State agency and the petitioners, the 
Department reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm. 
The workers are engaged in the production of interior automotive 
plastics (i.e. automotive radio faceplates, heater control faceplates 
and buttons and window switches).
    New information shows that workers leased from Manpower were 
employed on-site at the Medford, Wisconsin location of Phillips 
Plastics Corporation, Precision Decorating Facility. The Department has 
determined that these workers were sufficiently under the control of 
Phillips Plastics Corporation, Precision Decorating Facility to be 
considered leased workers.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include workers leased from Manpower working on-site 
at the Medford, Wisconsin location of the subject firm.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers employed at Phillips Plastics Corporation, Precision Decorating 
Facility, Medford, Wisconsin who were adversely affected by increased 
imports of interior automotive plastics (i.e., automotive radio 
faceplates, heater control faceplates and buttons and wind switches).
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-63,957 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ''All workers of Phillips Plastics Corporation, Precision 
Decorating Facility, including on-site leased workers from Manpower, 
Medford, Wisconsin, who became totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after July 27, 2007, through October 31, 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 18th day of November 2008.
Richard Church,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
