Avon Products, Inc. Including On-Site
Leased Workers From Spherion/
Source Right, Springdale, OH;
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 April 8, 2010, applicable
to workers of Avon Products, Inc.,
Springdale, Ohio. The workers produce
cosmetics, in particular pump spray
items, liquid and roll-on items, and
lipstick and hot fill items. The notice
was published in the Federal Register
on May 5, 2010 (75 FR 24750).
At the request of the petitioners, the
Department reviewed the certification
for workers of the subject firm. The
company reports that workers leased
from Spherion/Source Right were
employed on-site at the Springdale,
Ohio location of Avon Products. The
Department has determined that these
workers were sufficiently under the
control of Avon Products, Springdale,
Ohio to be considered leased workers.
Based on these findings, the
Department is amending this
certification to include workers leased
from Spherion/Source Right working
on-site at the Springdale, Ohio location
of Avon Products.
The amended notice applicable to
TA–W–73,095 is hereby issued as
follows:
jlentini on DSK4TPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
All workers of Avon Products, Inc.,
including on-site leased workers from
Spherion/Source Right, Springdale, Ohio,
who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after December 13,
2008, through April 8, 2012, and all workers
in the group threatened with total or partial
separation from employment on the date of
certification through two years from the date
of certification, are eligible to apply for
adjustment assistance under Chapter 2 of
Title II of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended.
