DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
[TA-W-29,626]

 

Jockey International, Inc.; Distribution Center, Kenosha, WI; 
Notice of Revised Determination on Reopening

    On September 21, 1994, the Department, at the request of the 
Amalgamated Clothing and Textile Workers' Union (ACTWU) reopened its 
investigation for the former workers of the subject facility. The 
initial investigation resulted in a negative determination on May 24, 
1994. The negative determination was published in the Federal Register 
on June 14, 1994 (59 FR 30617).

    New findings on reopening show that all of the statutory 
requirements for a worker group certification have been met.

    The investigation revealed that the Distribution Center in Kenosha 
serviced the Jockey sewing plant in Kenosha and was a substantial part 
of the company's integrated production process. Workers at Jockey's 
sewing plant in Kenosha were certified for TAA on July 30, 1993 under 
petition, TA-W-28,835.

    Workers at the Distribution Center experienced employment declines 
as a result of the production declines at Jockey's sewing plant in 
Kenosha. The Distribution Center closed in May, 1994. Accordingly, the 
Department is revising its negative determination for workers at 
Jockey's Distribution Center in Kenosha, Wisconsin.

Conclusion

    After careful consideration of the new facts obtained on reopening, 
it is concluded that increased imports of articles like or directly 
competitive with underwear produced at Jockey International, Inc., 
Kenosha, Wisconsin contributed importantly to the employment declines 
of workers at the Kenosha, Wisconsin Distribution Center of Jockey 
International, Incorporated. In accordance with the provisions of the 
Act, I make the following certification:

    ``All workers and former workers of Jockey International Inc., 
Distribution Center in Kenosha, Wisconsin who became totally or 
partially separated from employment on or after March 15, 1993 are 
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the 
Trade Act of 1974.''

    Signed at Washington, DC this 26th day of September 1994.

Victor J. Trunzo,

Program Manager, Policy and Reemployment Services, Office of Trade 
Adjustment Assistance.
