DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training Administration
[NAFTA-01428; NAFTA-01428A]
The Stanley Works Shelbyville Plant of Hand Tools Division,
Shelbyville, Tennessee; The Stanley Works Pulaski Handle Manufacturing
Plant & Hand Tool Division, Pulaski, Tennessee; Amended Certification
Regarding Eligibility To Apply for NAFTA-Transitional Adjustment
Assistance
In accordance with Section 250(a), Subchapter D, Chapter 2, Title
II, of the Trade Act of 1974 as amended (19 U.S.C. 2273), the
Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to Apply for
NAFTA-Transitional Adjustment Assistance on February 26, 1997,
applicable to all workers of The Stanley Works, Shelbyville Plant of
Hand Tools Division, Shelbyville, Tennessee. The notice was published
in the Federal Register on March 21, 1997 (62 FR 13711).
At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject firm. New findings show that
worker separations did occur at the subject firm's Pulaski, Tennessee
location in early April, 1997 and are expected to continue throughout
1997. The workers are engaged in employment related to the production
of hickory wood and tubular steel handles used in the manufacturing of
low and mid-line hammer products. The production of handles at The
Stanley Works' Pulaski, Tennessee plant contributes to the production
of hammers at the Stanley Works' Shelbyville, Tennessee plant.
Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to cover
workers at the subject firms' Pulaski, Tennessee plant.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of The Stanley Works adversely affected by increased imports
from Mexico or Canada.
The amended notice applicable to NAFTA-01428 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of The Stanley Works, Shelbyville Plant of Hand Tools
Division, Shelbyville, Tennessee (NAFTA-01428) and The Stanley
Works, Pulaski Handle Manufacturing Plant & Hand Tool Division,
Pulaski, Tennessee (NAFTA-01428A) who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after January 7, 1996 are eligible
to apply for NAFTA-TAA under Section 250 of the Trade Act of 1974.
Signed at Washington DC this 25th day of April, 1997.
Russell T. Kile,
Program Manager, Policy and Reemployment Services, Office of Trade
Adjustment.
