Book excerpt: Manufacturing workers face an uncertain future as manufacturing employment declines--more than 3 million manufacturing jobs have been lost in this country since 2000, many due to international trade. Furthermore, finding a new job may be harder for these workers because they tend to be older with have fewer transferable skills than other laid-off workers. The Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) program was established in 1962 to assist manufacturing workers who lose their jobs because of international trade. In 2002, the Congress made a number of key changes designed to expand benefits and decrease the time it takes to get workers into services. This testimony draws upon several GAO reports, including our most recently issued TAA report and our case study of five layoffs, and provides an overview of (1) how the TAA program operates, (2) recent trends in the Department of Labor's (Labor) certification of petitions, (3) the extent to which workers participate in training, (4) the extent to which workers take advantage of other TAA benefits, and (5) what is known about TAA program outcomes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of the National Evaluation of the Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) Program, this report provides information about the characteristics and early program experiences of workers eligible for TAA under the 2002 Trade Act. Information was collected via a telephone survey of a nationally representative sample of workers in 26 states (covering 90 percent of TAA eligible workers). Interviews were conducted both with participants in TAA and with "nonparticipants" who were eligible for, but did not receive, TAA services or benefits. Compared with other displaced manufacturing workers, TAA-eligible workers on average were more highly paid and were more likely to be full-time workers with long tenure at their previous job. Only half of TAA-eligible workers participated in the program with participation tending to be higher among women, older workers, and workers with less education. Almost all (98 percent) TAA participants received a Trade Readjustment Allowance (TRA) providing weekly income support, but only 60 percent of TAA participants enrolled in training. Receipt of the Health Coverage Tax Credit, a new provision under the 2002 Act, was uncommon. Only 14 percent of TAA participants used this credit. The participation rate was also low for another new component of the 2002 bill, the Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance (ATAA) program, which provided a subsidy for individuals taking a job paying less than their former job. Only four percent of participants age 50 and older used ATAA, due primarily to difficulties in finding a job and its less attractive benefits as compared to TRA.
