South Carolina; Amended Certification
Regarding Eligibility To Apply for
Worker Adjustment Assistance
In accordance with Section 223 of the
Trade Act of 1974, as amended (‘‘Act’’),
19 U.S.C. 2273, the Department of Labor
issued a Certification of Eligibility to
Apply for Worker Adjustment
Assistance on August 25, 2010,
applicable to workers of International
Business Machines (IBM), Global
Technology Services Delivery Division,
Greenville, South Carolina. The
Department’s Notice of determination
was published in the Federal Register
on September 15, 2010 (75 FR 56143).
At the request of a State Workforce
Agent, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject
firm. The workers provide customer
help desk support.
During the review, the company
confirmed that workers leased from
Artech were employed on-site at the
Greenville, South Carolina location of
IBM, Global Technology Services
Delivery Division. The Department has
determined that these workers were
sufficiently under the control of the
subject firm to be considered leased
workers.
Based on these findings, the
Department is amending this
certification to include workers leased
from Artech working on-site at the
Greenville, South Carolina location of
IBM, Global Technology Services
Delivery Division.
The amended notice applicable to
