Description: The North American Free

Trade Agreement-Transitional

Adjustment Assistance program

(NAFTA–TAA) provides support and

assistance to workers whose

employment is adversely affected as a

result of the North American Free Trade

Agreement Implementation Act. Section

250 of the North American Free Trade

Agreement Implementation Act

amended Chapter 2 of Title II of the

Trade Act of 1974 to provide assistance

for workers in primary firms that are

directly affected by imports from or

shifts in production to Mexico or

Canada. Through administrative action,

the Secretary of Labor applies existing

authority under Title III of the Job

Training Partnership Act to provide

assistance to workers in secondary firms

that supply or assemble products

produced by primary firms. The

governor of each State accepts petitions

from workers of primary firms that are

directly affected and from workers in

secondary firms. A petition may be filed

by a group of workers or by their

authorized representative, a company

official or a family farmer. Within ten

days of receipt of petition, the Governor

makes a preliminary finding as to

whether the petition meets certain

criteria of the NAFTA–TAA program.

The Governor forwards the petition to

the Secretary of Labor. The Department

of Labor collects data from firms to

determine workers’ eligibility for

adjustment assistance services. The

Petition, Confidential Data Request, and

Customer Survey Data Request forms

that have been used since January 1,

1994 are currently being revised to

extend the expiration date and to

include textual changes.

The Petition form is being revised to

inform workers that assistance is

available for workers in secondary firms

and to provide space for workers in

secondarily-affected firms to address

activities that have occurred at their

firm. The revised petition form also

clarifies who needs to sign the petition

form and provides a box to specify the

date of the worker’s separation from

employment.

The Confidential Data Request and

the Customer Survey Request forms are

being revised to provide assurances of

confidentiality to respondents and to

clarify and simplify several questions

addressed to company officials.

Signed at Washington, DC, this 18th day of

April 1995.
