DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-81,945]


Pfizer Therapeutic Research, Pfizer Worldwide Research & 
Development Division, Formerly Known as Warner Lambert Company, 
Comparative Medicine Department, Including On-Site Leased From Charles 
River Laboratories and Execupharm, Inc., Groton, Connecticut; Amended 
Certification Regarding Eligibility To Apply for Worker Adjustment 
Assistance

    In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended 
(``Act''), 19 U.S.C. 2273, the Department of Labor issued a 
Certification of Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance 
on October 25, 2012, applicable to workers of Pfizer Therapeutic 
Research, Pfizer Worldwide Research & Development Division, Comparative 
Medicine Department, including on-site leased workers from Charles 
River Laboratories, Groton, Connecticut. The workers are engaged in the 
supply of scientific research support, animal care and husbandry 
services. The notice was published in the Federal Register on November 
9, 2012 (77 FR 67404).
    As a result of a related pending investigation (TA-W-82,518, Pfizer 
Pharmaceuticals, Groton, Connecticut), the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. New information from the 
company shows that workers leased from ExecuPharm, Inc. were employed 
on-site at the Groton, Connecticut location of Pfizer Therapeutic 
Research, Pfizer Worldwide Research & Development Division, formerly 
known as Warner Lambert Company, Comparative Medicine Department. The 
Department has determined that these workers were sufficiently under 
the control of Pfizer Therapeutic Research, Pfizer Worldwide Research & 
Development Division, formerly known as Warner Lambert Company, 
Comparative Medicine Department to be considered leased workers.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of the subject firm who were adversely affected by a shift in 
services of scientific research support, animal care and husbandry 
services to a foreign country.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include workers leased

from ExecuPharm, Inc. working on-site at the Groton, Connecticut 
location of the subject firm.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-81,945 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers from Pfizer Therapeutic Research, Pfizer Worldwide 
Research & Development Division, formerly known as Warner Lambert 
Company, Comparative Medicine Department, including on-site leased 
workers from Charles River Laboratories and ExecuPharm, Inc., 
Groton, Connecticut, who became totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after September 5, 2011, through October 25, 2014, 
and all workers in the group threatened with total or partial 
separation from employment on the date of certification through two 
years from the date of certification, are eligible to apply for 
adjustment assistance under Chapter 2 of Title II of the Trade Act 
of 1974, as amended.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 25th day of April 2013.
Michael W. Jaffe,
Certifying Officer, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
