DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-82,379]


Abbott Laboratories; Diagnostic--Hematology; Including On-Site 
Leased Workers From Manpower Service Group and ATR International; Santa 
Clara, California; 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 February 22, 2013, applicable to workers of Abbott Laboratories, 
Diagnostic--Hematology division, including on-site leased workers from 
Manpower Service Group, Santa Clara, California. The Department's 
notice of determination was published in the Federal Register on March 
8, 2013 (78 FR 15050).
    At the request of the U.S. Department of Labor, the Department 
reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers 
were engaged in activities related to the production of hematology 
reagents and instruments.
    The company reports that workers leased from ATR International were 
employed on-site at the Santa Clara, California location of Abbott 
Laboratories, Diagnostic--Hematology Division. The Department has 
determined that these workers were sufficiently under the control of 
the subject firm to be considered leased workers.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include workers leased from ATR International working 
on-site at the Santa Clara, California location of Abbott Laboratories, 
Diagnostic--Hematology division.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-82,379 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of ATR International, reporting to Abbott 
Laboratories, Diagnostic--Hematology division, including on-site 
leased workers from Manpower Service Group, Santa Clara, California, 
who became totally or partially separated from employment on or 
after January 28, 2012, through February 22, 2015, 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 in Washington, DC this 21st day of August, 2013.
Michael W. Jaffe,
Certifying Officer, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
