Thomasville Furniture Industries, Inc. Corporate Office, a 
Subsidiary of Furniture Brands International, Inc., Thomasville 
Furniture Industries, Inc. Central Office, Thomasville, NC; 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, as amended 
(19 U.S.C. 2273), the Department of Labor issued a Certification of 
Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on February 11, 
2008, applicable to workers of Thomasville Furniture Industries, 
Corporate Office, Thomasville, North Carolina. The notice was published 
in the Federal Register on February 29, 2008 (73 FR 11153).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers provide 
administrative support.
    Information shows that Furniture Brands International, Inc. is the 
parent firm of Thomasville Furniture Industries, Inc. Workers wages at 
the subject firm are being reported under the Unemployment Insurance 
(UI) tax account for Furniture Brands International, Inc.

properly reflect this matter.

increased company imports of upholstered furniture by an affiliated 
facility whose workers were certified eligible to apply for adjustment 
assistance.

follows:

    All workers of Thomasville Furniture, Corporate Office, a
