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 23, 2009 on behalf of workers of Manpower, Inc.,
National Account OPS Division, working on-site at and under the
operational control of IBM, Hopewell Junction, New York (TA-W-
71,358); Somers, New York (TA-W-71,358A); Poughkeepsie, New
York (TA-W-71,358B); Endicott, New York (TA-W-71,358C);
Armonk, New York (TA-W-71,358D); Middletown, New York (TA-W-
71,358E); Fishkill, New York (TA-W-71,358F); Austin, Texas
(TA-W-71,358G); Atlanta, Georgia (TA-W-71,358H); Boulder,
Colorado (TA-W-71,358I); Cambridge, Massachusetts (TA-W-
71,358J); Research Triangle Park, North Carolina (TA-W-
71,358K); Rochester, Minnesota (TA-W-71,358L); and San Jose,
California (TA-W-71,358M)(Manpower, Inc.). The workers provide
administrative support services.
The investigation revealed that workers of Manpower, Inc.
who are engaged in employment related to administrative
support services meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant proportion
of workers have been separated during the relevant period.
Criterion II has been satisfied because IBM has shifted
to a foreign country the supply of services like or directly
competitive with the services supplied by the 14 IBM
facilities identified above.
Criterion III has been met because the shift of services
to Malaysia by IBM contributed importantly to the Manpower,
Inc. worker group separations at the 14 IBM facilities
identified above.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Manpower, Inc.,
National Account OPS Division, working on-site at 14 IBM
facilities, who are engaged in employment related to
administrative 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 Manpower, Inc., National Account OPS
Division, working on-site at IBM, Hopewell Junction, New
York (TA-W-71,358); Somers, New York (TA-W-71,358A);
Poughkeepsie, New York (TA-W-71,358B); Endicott, New York
(TA-W-71,358C); Armonk, New York (TA-W-71,358D);
Middletown, New York (TA-W-71,358E); Fishkill, New York
(TA-W-71,358F); Austin, Texas (TA-W-71,358G); Atlanta,
Georgia (TA-W-71,358H); Boulder, Colorado (TA-W-71,358I);
Cambridge, Massachusetts (TA-W-71,358J); Research
Triangle Park, North Carolina (TA-W-71,358K); Rochester,
Minnesota (TA-W-71,358L); and San Jose, California (TA-W-
71,358M) who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after June 16, 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 22nd day of January, 2010
