BILLING CODE 4510–30–P
Notice was published in the Federal
Register on May 19, 2006 (71 FR 29184).
The petition for Trade Adjustment
Assistance (TAA), dated February 28,
2006, filed on behalf of workers of WSW
Company of Sharon, Inc., a Subsidiary
of Wormser Company, Sharon,
Tennessee (subject facility) was denied
because, during the relevant period, the
workers did not produce an article
within the meaning of the Trade Act
and did not support a domestic
production facility that was importimpacted. While the subject facility was
previously certified for TAA (TA–W–
51,848), the certification expired prior
to the petition date (expired on June 30,
2005).
In the request for reconsideration, the
petitioners assert that, during the
relevant period, they were engaged in
activity related to the production of an
article (children’s sleepwear)
manufactured by Wormser Company
(subject firm).
During the reconsideration
investigation, the Department confirmed
that domestic production had ceased in
2004 and, therefore, determined that
production did not take place at the
subject facility during the relevant
period.
In subsequent submissions, the
petitioners asserted that they produced
‘‘pick tickets’’ (internal-use distribution
documents) and labels used for
shipping. Although the workers’
activities resulted in printed material,
this material is incidental to the
provision of distribution services. The
Department has consistently determined
that items produced as a result of the
provision of services are not marketable
and not an article for purposes of the
Trade Act.
Further, information provided by the
petitioners reveal that the activities in
which they were engaged supported a
domestic warehousing and shipping
facility, not a production facility.
Conclusion
DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
After review of the application and
investigative findings, I conclude that
there has been no error or
misinterpretation of the law or of the
facts which would justify
reconsideration of the Department of
Labor’s prior decision. Accordingly, the
application is denied.
