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 June 16, 2009 by three workers on behalf of workers of
International Color Services, Scottsdale, Arizona. The workers
are engaged in employment related to the supply of digital
printing and color separation services.
The investigation revealed that workers of International
Color Services who, are engaged in employment related to the
supply of digital printing and color separation services, meet
the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because at least five percent of
the workers have been separated or are threatened with
separation.
Criterion II has been met because the workers' firm has
acquired from a foreign country services like or directly
competitive with the services provided by the workers.
Criterion III has been met because the acquisition of
digital printing and color separation services from India and
Italy by International Color Services contributed importantly
to worker group separations at the Scottsdale, Arizona
location.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of International Color
Services, Scottsdale, Arizona, who are engaged in employment
related to the supply of digital printing and color separation
services, 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 International Color Services, Scottsdale,
Arizona who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after June 9, 2008, through two years from
the date of certification, and all workers in the group
threatened with total or partial separation from employment
on 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."
