Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance
In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended (“Act”), 19 U.S.C. § 2273, the Department of Labor issued a
Certification of Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment
Assistance on August 21, 2009, applicable to workers of Halliburton
Company, Duncan Mfg., including on-site leased workers from Express
Personnel, Clayton Personnel Service and Manpower Planning, Duncan,
Oklahoma. The notice was published in the Federal Register on
September 22, 2009 (74 FR 48300).
At the request of the State Agency, the Department reviewed
the certification for workers of the Technology and Engineering
Division, and Finance and Administration Division.
Additional information revealed that workers of the Technology
and Engineering Division, and Finance and Administration Division
were adversely affected by the firm’s shift in production of oil
field service equipment from the Duncan, Oklahoma facility to
India, China, Malaysia and Mexico, which was the basis for
certification of TA-W-70,232. In addition, a significant number or
proportion of workers of the Technology and Engineering Division
and Finance and Administration Division were separated during the
relevant period.
Workers of Halliburton Company, Technology and Engineering
Division, and Finance and Administration Division, Duncan,
Oklahoma, were certified eligible for trade adjustment assistance
in a subsequent investigation, TA-W-73,525 and TA-W-73,525A,
respectively. The impact date for both certifications is February
17, 2009. Halliburton Company also employs a separate group of
workers in the Duncan Field Camp Division, who did not support the
production of oil field service equipment. Workers of Duncan Field
Camp Division were denied eligibility for trade adjustment
assistance per TA-W-73,525B and are not subject to this amendment.
The intent of the Department’s amended certification is to
cover workers in the Technology and Engineering Division and
Finance and Administration Division who were separated on or after
the impact date of TA-W-70,232 on May 19, 2008 through the impact
date of TA-W-73,525 and TA-W-73,525A on February 17, 2009.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-70,232 is hereby issued
as follows:
"All workers Halliburton Company, Duncan Mfg., including
on-site leased workers from Express Personnel, Clayton
Personnel Service and Manpower Planning, Duncan, Oklahoma
(TA-W-70,232) who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after May 19, 2008, through August
21, 2011, and all workers in the group threatened with
total or partial separation from employment on the date
of certification through two years from the date of
certification, are eligible to apply for adjustment
assistance under Chapter 2 of Title II of the Trade Act
of 1974, as amended,
AND
All workers Halliburton Company, Technology and
Engineering Division, and Finance and Administration
Division, Duncan, Oklahoma (TA-W-70,232A) who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or
after May 19, 2008 through February 16, 2009 are eligible
to apply for adjustment assistance under Chapter 2 of
Title II of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended.”

Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance
In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended (“Act”), 19 U.S.C. § 2273, the Department of Labor herein
presents the results of an investigation regarding certification of
eligibility to apply for worker adjustment assistance.
The group eligibility requirements for workers of a firm under
Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a), are satisfied if
the following criteria are met:
I. The first criterion (set forth in Section 222(a)(1) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a)(1)) requires that a significant
number or proportion of the workers in the workers’ firm must
have become totally or partially separated or be threatened
with total or partial separation.
II. The second criterion (set forth in Section 222(a)(2) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a)(2)) may be satisfied if either:
(i)(I) there has been a shift by the workers’ firm to a
foreign country in the production of articles or supply
of services like or directly competitive with those
produced/supplied by the workers’ firm; or
(i)(II) there has been an acquisition from a foreign country
by the workers’ firm of articles/services that are like
or directly competitive with those produced/supplied by
the workers’ firm.
III. The third criterion requires that the shift/acquisition must
have contributed importantly to the workers’ separation or
threat of separation. See Section 222(a)(2)(B)(ii) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a)(2)(B)(ii).
The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on May 19, 2009 on behalf of workers of Halliburton Company,
Duncan Mfg., Duncan, Oklahoma. Workers of the subject firm are
engaged in employment related to the production of oil field
service equipment.
The worker group includes on-site leased workers from Express
Personnel, Clayton Personnel Service, and Manpower Planning.
The investigation revealed that workers of the Duncan,
Oklahoma facility who are engaged in employment related to the
production of oil field service equipment meet the criteria for
certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant portion of
the workers has been separated.
Criterion II has been met because the workers’ firm has
shifted the production of an article like or directly competitive
with oil field service equipment to a foreign country.
Criterion III has been met because the shift of production
of oil field service equipment from the Duncan, Oklahoma facility
to India, China, Malaysia, and Mexico contributed importantly to
worker group separations at the Duncan, Oklahoma facility.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Halliburton Company,
Duncan Mfg., including on-site leased workers from Express
Personnel, Clayton Personnel Service, and Manpower Planning,
Duncan, Oklahoma, who are engaged in employment related to the
production of oil field service equipment meet the worker group
certification criteria under Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. §
2272(a). In accordance with Section 223 of the Act, 19 U.S.C. §
2273, I make the following certification:
“All workers of Halliburton Company, Duncan Mfg., including
on-site leased workers from Express Personnel, Clayton
Personnel Service, and Manpower Planning, Duncan, Oklahoma,
who became totally or partially separated from employment on
or after May 19, 2008, through two years from the date of
certification, and all workers in the group threatened with
total or partial separation from employment on the date of
certification through two years from the date of
certification, are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance
under Chapter 2 of Title II of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended.”
