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 28, 2009 by a company official on behalf of
workers of RBC Manufacturing Corporation, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Regal Beloit Corporation, Grafton, Wisconsin. The
workers produce electric motors. The worker group includes on-
site leased workers from SEEK Careers.
The investigation revealed that workers of RBC
Manufacturing Corporation who are engaged in employment
related to production of electric motors meet the criteria for
certification.
Criterion I has been met because at least five percent of
the workers have become separated from employment during the
relevant period.
Criterion II has been satisfied because the workers firm
has shifted to a foreign country the production of an article
like or directly competitive with the article produced by the
workers.
Criterion III has been met because the shift in
production of electric motors by RBC Manufacturing Corporation
contributed importantly to worker group separations at the
Grafton, Wisconsin facility.


Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of RBC Manufacturing
Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Regal Beloit
Corporation, Grafton, Wisconsin, who are engaged in employment
related to production of electric motors 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 RBC Manufacturing Corporation, a wholly-
owned subsidiary of Regal Beloit Corporation, including on-
site leased workers from SEEK Careers, Grafton, Wisconsin,
who became totally or partially separated from employment
on or after May 26, 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."
Signed in Washington, D.C., this 19th day of October, 2009
