Disclaimer

The 2011 amendments to the Trade Adjustment
Assistance for Workers program expire on December
31, 2013. If there is no action taken by Congress, the
program will revert to a modified version of the 2002
program. This presentation represents a summary of
what that reverted program will look like. Congress
may pass legislation prior to December 31, 2013, or
may even pass legislation after that date with
retroactive provisions (as they did in 2011). ETA will
issue official guidance to the system based on either
an expectation of reversion or Congressional action.
This presentation is intended to provide an informal
summary to the system and stakeholders. Questions
should be directed to the appropriate Regional Office.

ATAA and the Petition Process – Reversion 2014

for petitioners to check to indicate that
the worker group wishes to be
considered for ATAA group eligibility

affected workers in the petitioning workers’ firm are
50 years of age or older (the lesser of 5% or 50
workers);

 Criterion 2: The adversely affected workers in the
petitioning workers’ firm possess job skills that are
not easily transferable to other employment; and
 Criterion 3: The competitive conditions within the
affected workers’ industry are adverse.
23
ATAA Eligibility – Reversion 2014
 From a worker group that has been declared ATAA eligible
 Reemployed within 26 weeks of most recent qualifying
separation - not certification

and that the worker understands that he/she cannot
subsequently switch to the TAA program once they begin
receiving the ATAA supplement
– Receipt of the initial ATAA payment represents the individual’s
decision with respect to choosing ATAA and voids the participant’s
rights to retraining, allowances and TRA.
– Correspondingly, once a worker has enrolled in training, he/she
forfeits his/her right to ATAA participation.

  • 3. Disclaimer The 2011 amendments to the Trade Adjustment Assistance for Workers program expire on December 31, 2013. If there is no action taken by Congress, the program will revert to a modified version of the 2002 program. This presentation represents a summary of what that reverted program will look like. Congress may pass legislation prior to December 31, 2013, or may even pass legislation after that date with retroactive provisions (as they did in 2011). ETA will issue official guidance to the system based on either an expectation of reversion or Congressional action. This presentation is intended to provide an informal summary to the system and stakeholders. Questions should be directed to the appropriate Regional Office. 3
