Thomasville Furniture Ind.; Plant #5;
Conover, NC; Notice of Revised
Determination on Reconsideration
By letter dated April 4, 2006, a
petitioner requested administrative
reconsideration regarding the
Department’s Negative Determination
Regarding Eligibility to Apply for
Worker Adjustment Assistance,
applicable to the workers of the subject
firm.
The initial investigation resulted in a
negative determination signed on March
10, 2006, was based on the finding that
sales and production at the subject
facility increased during the relevant
time period and that job losses at the
subject firm were not attributed to
increased imports or a shift of
production of upholstered furniture to a
foreign source. The denial notice was
published in the Federal Register on
April 4, 2006 (71 FR 16834).
To support the request for
reconsideration, the petitioner supplied
additional information regarding
production at the subject facility and
company imports of like or directly
competitive products with those
produced at the subject firm.
The review of the case revealed that
sales at the subject firm decreased from
2004 to 2005. Upon further contact with
the subject firm’s company official, it
was revealed that the subject firm
decreased domestic production of
upholstered furniture while increasing
its reliance on imports of upholstered
furniture during the relevant time
period.
In accordance with section 246 the
Trade Act of 1974 (26 U.S.C. 2813), as
amended, the Department of Labor
herein presents the results of its
investigation regarding certification of
eligibility to apply for alternative trade
adjustment assistance (ATAA) for older
workers.
In order for the Department to issue
a certification of eligibility to apply for
ATAA, the group eligibility
requirements of section 246 of the Trade
Act must be met. The Department has
determined in this case that the
