DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training Administration
[NAFTA-01110 & 01110A]
Jolie Handbag, Incorporated; Hialeah, Florida and Laredo, Texas;
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 USC 2273), the Department
of Labor issued a Certification for NAFTA Transitional Adjustment
Assistance on July 26, 1996 applicable to all workers of Jolie Handbag,
Incorporated in Hialeah, Florida. The notice was published in the
Federal Register on August 26, 1996 (61 FR 43792).
At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject firm. New findings show that
worker separations occurred at Jolie Handbag's Laredo, Texas facility
when it closed during April, 1997. The workers were engaged in
employment related to the production of ladies' handbags.
Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to cover
workers at the subject firms' Laredo, Texas location.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of Jolie Handbag who were adversely affected by increased
imports from Mexico or Canada.
The amended notice applicable to NAFTA-01110 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of Jolie Handbag, Hialeah, Florida (NAFTA-01110),
and Laredo, Texas (NAFTA-01110A) who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after May 11, 1995, are eligible to
apply for NAFTA-TAA under Section 250 of the Trade Act of 1974.
Signed at Washington, D.C. this 22d day of May, 1997.
Russell T. Kile,
Program Manager, Policy and Reemployment Services, Office of Trade
Adjustment Assistance.
