Hafner USA, Inc., New York, NY; Notice
of Negative Determination on
Reconsideration
On January 13, 2009, the Department
issued an Affirmative Determination
Regarding Application for
Reconsideration of the negative
determination regarding workers’
eligibility to apply for Trade Adjustment
Assistance (TAA) and Alternative Trade
Adjustment Assistance (ATAA)
applicable to workers and former
workers of Hafner USA, Inc., New York,
New York (subject firm). The
Department’s Notice was published in
the Federal Register on January 26,
2009 (74 FR 4460).
The initial determination was based
on the Department’s findings that the
subject worker group does not support
a firm or appropriate subdivision that
produces an article domestically.
In order to apply for TAA based on
increased imports, the subject worker
group must meet the group eligibility
requirements under Section 222(a) of
the Trade Act of 1974, as amended.
Under Section 222(a)(2)(A), the
following criteria must be met:
A. A significant number or proportion of
the workers in such workers’ firm, or an
appropriate subdivision of the firm, have
become totally or partially separated, or are
threatened to become totally or partially
separated; and
B. The sales or production, or both, of such
firm or subdivision have decreased
absolutely; and
C. Increased imports of articles like or
directly competitive with articles produced
by such firm or subdivision have contributed
importantly to such workers’ separation or
threat of separation and to the decline in
sales or production of such firm or
subdivision.
29 CFR 90.2 states that a group means
‘‘three or more workers in a firm or an
appropriate subdivision thereof’’ and
that a significant number or proportion
of the workers means ‘‘at least three
workers in a firm (or appropriate
subdivision thereof) with a work force
