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 14, 2009, by a company official on behalf of
workers of Indalex, Inc., Girard, Ohio (TA-W-71,670); Indalex,
Inc., City of Industry, California (TA-W-71,670A); Indalex,
Inc., Burlington, North Carolina (TA-W-71,670B); Indalex, Inc.,
Mountain Top, Pennsylvania (TA-W-71,670C); Indalex, Inc.,
Connersville, Indiana (TA-W-71,670D); Indalex, Inc., Elkhart,
Indiana (TA-W-71,670E); Indalex, Inc., Gainesville, Georgia (TA-
W-71,670F); and Indalex, Inc., Kokomo, Indiana (TA-W-71,670G)
(collectively referred to hereafter as Indalex). The workers
are engaged in employment related to the production of
aluminum extrusions, coatings, and fabrications. The workers
are not separately identifiable by product line.
The worker group at the City of Industry, California
facility includes on-site leased workers from Vanguard Services,
Inc., Quality Drivers Solutions, Inc., Personnel Plus, Inc.,
and Priority Business Services, Inc.; the worker group at the
Mountain Top, Pennsylvania facility includes in-site leased
workers from Gavlick Personnel and Manpower; the worker group
at the Elkhart, Indiana facility includes on-site leased
workers from ProResources Staffing Services; and the worker
group ay the Gainesville, Georgia facility includes on-site
leased workers from TRC Staffing Solutions.
The investigation revealed that workers of Indalex, who are
engaged in employment related to the production of aluminum
extrusions, coatings, and fabrications, meet the criteria for
certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant proportion
or number of workers at each of the Indalex facilities
(Girard, Ohio; City of Industry, California; Burlington, North
Carolina; Mountain Top, Pennsylvania; Connersville, Indiana;
Elkhart, Indiana; Gainesville, Georgia; and Kokomo, Indiana)
have been totally or partially separated, or threatened with
such separation during the relevant period.
Criterion II has been met because Indalex has shifted to
a foreign country the production of an article like or
directly competitive with the articles produced by the
workers.
Criterion III has been met because the shift of
production of aluminum extrusions, coatings, and fabrications
to Canada contributed importantly to worker group separations
at each of the Indalex facilities (Girard, Ohio; City of
Industry, California; Burlington, North Carolina; Mountain
Top, Pennsylvania; Connersville, Indiana; Elkhart, Indiana;
Gainesville, Georgia; and Kokomo, Indiana).


Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Indalex, Inc.,
Girard, Ohio (TA-W-71,670); Indalex, Inc., City of Industry,
California (TA-W-71,670A); Indalex, Inc., Burlington, North
Carolina (TA-W-71,670B); Indalex, Inc., Mountain Top,
Pennsylvania (TA-W-71,670C); Indalex, Inc., Connersville,
Indiana (TA-W-71,670D); Indalex, Inc., Elkhart, Indiana (TA-W-
71,670E); Indalex, Inc., Gainesville, Georgia (TA-W-71,670F);
and Indalex, Inc., Kokomo, Indiana (TA-W-71,670G), who are
engaged in employment related to the production of aluminum
extrusions, coatings, and fabrications, 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 Indalex, Inc., Girard, Ohio (TA-W-71,670);
Indalex, Inc., including on-site leased workers from
Vanguard Services, Inc., Quality Drivers Solutions, Inc.,
Personnel Plus, Inc., and Priority Business Services,
Inc., City of Industry, California (TA-W-71,670A);
Indalex, Inc., Burlington, North Carolina (TA-W-71,670B);
Indalex, Inc., including on-site leased workers from
Gavlick Personnel and Manpower, Mountain Top, Pennsylvania
(TA-W-71,670C); Indalex, Inc., Connersville, Indiana (TA-W-
71,670D); Indalex, Inc., including on-site leased workers
from ProResources Staffing Services, Elkhart, Indiana (TA-
W-71,670E); Indalex, Inc., including on-site leased workers
from TRC Staffing Solutions, Gainesville, Georgia (TA-W-
71,670F); and Indalex, Inc., Kokomo, Indiana (TA-W-
71,670G), who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after July 13, 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.”
