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 26, 2009 on behalf of workers of Ericsson,
Inc., Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. The workers
produce mobile platform designs. The investigation revealed
that the worker group includes on-site leased workers of Tek
Systems Inc., Vedior North America LLC, Logic Wireless Inc.,
Insight Global Inc., BCI Inc., and Tanintco Inc. Workers are
not separately identifiable by product line.
The investigation revealed that workers of Ericsson, Inc.,
including on-site leased workers of Tek Systems Inc., Vedior
North America LLC, Logic Wireless Inc., Insight Global Inc.,
BCI Inc., Tanintco Inc., Research Triangle Park, North
Carolina, who are engaged in activities related to the
production of mobile platform designs, meet the criteria for
certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number or
portion of workers are threatened with total separation from
employment.
Criterion II has been satisfied because the workers'
firm has acquired from foreign countries articles like or
directly competitive with the articles produced by the
workers.
Criterion III has been met because the acquisition of
mobile platform designs from Germany by Ericsson, Inc.
contributed importantly to worker group separations at
Ericsson, Inc., Research Triangle Park, North Carolina.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Ericsson, Inc.,
including on-site leased workers of Tek Systems Inc., Vedior
North America LLC, Logic Wireless Inc., Insight Global Inc.,
BCI Inc., Tanintco Inc., Research Triangle Park, North
Carolina, who are engaged in employment related to mobile
platform designs 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 Ericsson, Inc., including on-site leased
workers of Tek Systems Inc., Vedior North America LLC,
Logic Wireless Inc., Insight Global Inc., BCI Inc., and
Tanintco Inc., Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after October 22, 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 25th day of February, 2010.
