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 October 7, 2009 by a state workforce official on
behalf of workers of Hewlett-Packard Company, StorageWorks
Business Unit, Unified Storage Division, Network Attached
Storage (NAS) Group, Fort Collins, Colorado (hereinafter
referred to as Hewlett-Packard, NAS). The worker group
includes on-site leased workers from Manpower. The workers are
engaged in activities related to the supply of computer systems
design services.
The investigation revealed that workers of Hewlett-Packard,
NAS, who are engaged in activities related to the supply of
computer systems design services, meet the criteria for
certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant proportion
of the workers at the workers' firm were separated during the
relevant period.
Criterion II has been met because the workers' firm has
shifted to a foreign country the supply of a service like or
directly competitive with the services supplied by the
workers.


Criterion III has been met because the shift of computer
systems design services to India by Hewlett-Packard, NAS
contributed importantly to worker group separations at the
Fort Collins, Colorado facility.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers Hewlett-Packard Company,
StorageWorks Business Unit, Unified Storage Division, Network
Attached Storage (NAS) Group, Fort Collins, Colorado, who are
engaged in activities related to the supply of computer systems
design 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 Hewlett-Packard Company, StorageWorks
Business Unit, Unified Storage Division, Network Attached
Storage (NAS) Group, Fort Collins, Colorado, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
October 6, 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 4th day of June, 2010.
