DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
 

Determinations Regarding Eligibility To Apply for Worker 
Adjustment Assistance

    In accordance with section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 
2273) the Department of Labor herein presents summaries of 
determinations regarding eligibility to apply for adjustment assistance 
issued during the period of January, 1994.
    In order for an affirmative determination to be made and a 
certification of eligibility to apply for adjustment assistance to be 
issued, each of the group eligibility requirements of section 222 of 
the Act must be met.

(1) That a significant number or proportion of the workers in the 
workers' firm, or an appropriate subdivision thereof, have become 
totally or partially separated,
(2) That sales or production, or both, of the firm or subdivision have 
decreased absolutely, and
(3) That increases of imports of articles like or directly competitive 
with articles produced by the firm or appropriate subdivision have 
contributed importantly to the separations, or threat thereof, and to 
the absolute decline in sales or production.
