of Legrand, including On-Site Leased
Workers of Defender Services,
Staffmasters USA and Holland
Employment Group, Dallas, NC;
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 August 13, 2007,
applicable to workers of Ortronics,
Incorporated, a subsidiary of Legrand,
including on-site leased workers from
Defender Services, Dallas, Texas. The
notice was published in the Federal
Register on August 30, 2007 (72 FR
50126).
At the request of the State agency, the
Department reviewed the certification
for workers of the subject firm. The
workers are engaged in the production
of structured cabling and fiber optic
products.
New information shows that leased
workers of Staffmaster USA and
Holland Employment Group were
employed on-site at the Dallas, North
Carolina location of Orthronics,
Incorporated, a subsidiary of Legrand.
The Department has determined that the
Staffmaster USA and Holland
Employment Group workers were
sufficiently under the control of
Ortronics, Incorporated to be considered
leased workers.
Based on these findings, the
Department is amending this
certification to include leased workers
of Staffmaster USA and Holland
Employment Group working on-site at
VerDate Aug<31>2005

the Dallas, North Carolina location of
the subject firm.
The intent of the Department’s
certification is to include all workers
employed at Ortronics, Incorporated, a
subsidiary of Legrand, Dallas, North
Carolina who were adversely affected by
a shift in production to Mexico.
The amended notice applicable to
TA–W–61,899 is hereby issued as
follows:
‘‘All workers of Ortronics, Incorporated, a
subsidiary of Legrand, including on-site
leased workers of Defender Services,
Staffmasters USA, and Holland Employment
Group, Dallas, North Carolina, who became
totally or partially separated from
employment on or after July 27, 2006,
through August 13, 2009, 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.’’
