DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-61,780]


Harman/Becker Automotive Systems, Inc., Including On-Site Leased 
Workers From Elwood Staffing, Account Temps and PMI, Currently Known as 
Spartan Staffing Martinsville, IN; Amended Certification Regarding 
Eligibility To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and Alternative 
Trade Adjustment Assistance

    In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 
2273), and Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 (26 U.S.C. 2813), as 
amended, the Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility 
to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and Alternative Trade 
Adjustment Assistance on July 20, 2007, applicable to workers of 
Harman/Becker Automotive Systems, Inc., Martinsville, Indiana. The 
notice was published in the Federal Register on August 2, 2007 (72 FR 
42436).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers were engaged 
in the production of automotive speakers.
    New information shows that workers leased from Elwood Staffing, 
Account Temps and PMI, currently known as Spartan Staffing were 
employed on-site at the Martinsville, Indiana location of Harman/Becker 
Automotive Systems, Inc. The Department has determined that these 
workers were sufficiently under the control of Harman/Becker Automotive 
Systems, Inc. to be considered leased workers.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include workers leased from Elwood Staffing, Account 
Temps and PMI, currently known as Spartan Staffing, working on-site at 
the Martinsville, Indiana location of the subject firm.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers employed at Harman/Becker Automotive Systems, Inc. who were 
adversely affected by a shift in production of automotive speakers to 
Mexico.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-61,780 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Harman/Becker Automotive Systems, Inc., including 
on-site leased workers from Elwood Staffing, Account Temps and PMI, 
currently known as Spartan Staffing, Martinsville, Indiana, who 
became totally or partially separated from employment on or after 
June 28, 2006 through July 20, 2009, are eligible to apply for 
adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, 
and are also eligible to apply for alternative trade adjustment 
assistance under Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC this 25th day of February 2009.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
