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 December 4, 2009 by the United Auto Workers (UAW) on
behalf of workers of General Motors Powertrain Toledo, a
subsidiary of New GM Company, Toledo, Ohio (GM Powertrain).
The workers are engaged in work related to the production of
automobile transmissions. The worker group includes on-site
leased workers from Grub & Ellis, Knight Facilities
Management, Production Services Management, Inc., and Ideal
Setech.
The investigation revealed that workers of GM Powertrain
who are engaged in employment related to the production of
automobile transmissions meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number of
workers have been separated during the relevant period.
Criterion II has been satisfied because the workers' firm
has shifted to a foreign country the production of an article
like or directly competitive with the automobile transmissions
produced by the workers.
Criterion III has been met because the shift in
production by GM Powertrain contributed importantly to worker
group separations at the Toledo, Ohio facility.

Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of General Motors
Powertrain Company, a subsidiary of New GM Company, Toledo,
Ohio who are engaged in employment related to the production of
automobile transmissions 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 General Motors Powertrain Company, a
subsidiary of New GM Company, including on-site leased
workers from Grub & Ellis, Knight Facilities Management,
Production Services Management, Inc., and Ideal Setech,
Toledo, Ohio who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after December 3, 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 25th day of March, 2010
