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 July 2, 2009 by a company official on behalf of
workers of Johnson Controls, Inc., Earth City, Missouri. The
workers are engaged in the production of automobile seats.
The investigation revealed that workers of Johnson
Controls, Inc. who are engaged in employment related to
automobile seats meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number or
portion of the workers in the workers' firm have become
totally or partially separated in the period under
investigation.
Criterion II has been met because the workers' firm has
shifted production of automobile seats and/or articles like or
directly competitive supplied by the workers to Mexico.
Criterion III has been met because the shift of
automobile seats to Mexico by Johnson Controls, Inc.
contributed importantly to worker group separations at Johnson
Controls, Inc.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Johnson Controls,
Inc., Earth City, Missouri, who are engaged in employment
related to automobile seats 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 Johnson Controls, Inc., including on-site
leased workers from Kelly Temporary Services, Earth City,
Missouri, who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after June 29, 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."
Signed in Washington, D.C., this 1st day of September, 2009
