BILLING CODE 4510–FW–P
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 February 21, 2008,
applicable to workers of Hasbro, Inc.,
East Longmeadow, Massachusetts. The
notice was published in the Federal
Register on March 7, 2008 (73 FR
12466).
At the request of the State agency, the
Department reviewed the certification
for workers of the subject firm. The
workers were engaged in the production
of board games and puzzles.
New information shows that workers
separated from employment at the
subject firm had their wages reported
under two separate unemployment
insurance (UI) tax accounts Hasbro, Inc.
and Hasbro Managerial Services, Inc.
Accordingly, the Department is
amending this certification to properly
reflect this matter.
The intent of the Department’s
certification is to include all workers of
Hasbro, Inc., and Hasbro Managerial
Services, Inc., who were adversely
affected by increased imports of board
games and puzzles following a shift in
production to China.
The amended notice applicable to
TA–W–62,787 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of Hasbro, Inc., and Hasbro
Managerial Services, Inc., East Longmeadow,
Massachusetts, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or
after January 30, 2007, through February 21,
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 6th day of
June, 2008.
