TA-W-34,383Philips 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.
