Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 67 / Tuesday, April 8, 2014 / Notices
The Department’s notice of
determination was published in the
Federal Register on November 6, 2013
(78 FR 66782).
At the request of a dislocated worker,
the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject
firm. The workers were engaged in
activities related to the supply of global
analysis, forecasting, planning, parts
ordering and quality control for IBM.
The amendment investigation
confirmed that workers of Manpower
Group, working on-site at IBM
Corporation, Mechanicsburg,
Pennsylvania were separated due to the
same acquisition of services that led to
worker separations at the Camp Hill,
Pennsylvania facility. The investigation
also confirmed that workers of
Manpower Group at both locations were
sufficiently under the operational
control of IBM to be considered leased
workers.
The amended notice applicable to
TA–W–83,036 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of Manpower Group, working
on-site at IBM Corporation, Camp Hill,
Pennsylvania (TA–W–83,036) and Manpower
Group, working on-site at IBM Corporation,
Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, who became
totally or partially separated from
employment on or after August 28, 2012
through October 17, 2015, 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.
Signed in Washington, DC this 25th day of
March, 2014.
