DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training Administration
[TA-W-34,383]
Philips Consumer Communications, Lucent Technologies,
Incorporated, Eatontown, New Jersey; Amended Certification Regarding
Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance
In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 USC
2273) the Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on May 15, 1998, applicable to
all workers of Philips Consumer Communications, Lucent Technologies,
Incorporated located in Eatontown, New Jersey. The notice was published
in the Federal Register on July 31, 1998 (63 FR 40935).
At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject firm. New information provided
by the State shows that Philips Consumer Communications jointly owned
with Lucent Technologies, Incorporated leased workers from ATC and
Lucent Temporary Services. The workers leased from ATC and Lucent
Temporary Services provided research and development of cord and
cordless telephones and answering machine systems and the production of
samples at the Eatontown, New Jersey plant of Philips Consumer
Communications. Worker separations occurred at ATC and Lucent Temporary
Services as a result of worker separations at Philips Consumer
Communications.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending the
certification to include workers of ATC, Edison, New Jersey and Lucent
Temporary Services, Whippany, New Jersey who provided research and
development of cord and cordless telephones and answering machine
systems and the production of samples at Philips Consumer
Communications, Eatontown, New Jersey.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of Philips Consumer Communications adversely affected by
imports.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-34,383 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of Philips Consumer Communications jointly owned
with Lucent Technologies, Incorporated, Eatontown, New Jersey and
leased workers of ATC, Edison, New Jersey and Lucent Temporary
Services, Whippany, New Jersey who provided research and development
of cord and cordless telephones and answering machine systems and
the production of samples for Philips Consumer Communications,
Eatontown, New Jersey who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after March 12, 1997 through May 15, 2000 are
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the
Trade Act of 1974.
Signed at Washington, D.C. this 14th day of August, 1998.
Grant D. Beale,
Acting Director, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
