What are Trade Readjustment Act Benefits, or TRA?
The Trade Readjustment Act provides benefits to workers who are displaced by increased imports of articles or products in competition with those produced by the affected workers. To qualify for TRA, a person must be an adversely affected worker covered under a petition certified by the United States Department of Labor — and the worker must meet certain separation, wage and employment qualifications. TRA benefits are payable only after the exhaustion of all other UI claims.
