[TA-W-42,343 and TA-W-42,343A]


Wolverine World Wide, Inc. Formerly Frolic Footwear, A Division 
of Wolverine Manufacturing Group, Arkansas Operations, Monette, 
Arkansas; Wolverine World Wide, Inc. Formerly Frolic Footwear, A 
Division of Wolverine Manufacturing Group, Arkansas Operations, 
Jonesboro, Arkansas; Amended Certification 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 issued a Notice of Certification 
Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on 
December 13, 2002, applicable to workers of Wolverine World Wide, Inc., 
formerly Frolic Footwear, a Division of Wolverine Manufacturing Group, 
Arkansas operations, Monette, Arkansas. The notice will be published 
soon in the Federal Register.
    At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The company reports that 
worker separations occurred at the Jonesboro, Arkansas location of 
Wolverine World Wide, Inc., Arkansas Operations. The Jonesboro, 
Arkansas location produces cut to fit upper component parts needed for 
the production of house slippers and clog slippers at the Monette, 
Arkansas location of the subject firm.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending the 
certification to include workers of the Jonesboro, Arkansas location of 
Wolverine World Wide, Inc., Arkansas Operations.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Wolverine World Wide, Inc., Arkansas Operations who were 
adversely affected by increased imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-42,343 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of Wolverine World Wide, Inc., formerly Frolic 
Footwear, a Division of Wolverine Manufacturing Group, Arkansas 
Operations, Monette, Arkansas (TA-W-42,343), and Jonesboro, Arkansas 
(TA-W-42,343A), who became totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after October 23, 2001, through December 13, 2004, 
are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of 
the Trade Act of 1974.''

    Signed at Washington, DC this 13th day of January 2003.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
