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:
(1) a significant number or proportion of the workers in such
workers' firm have become totally or partially separated, or
are threatened to become totally or partially separated; and

(2)(A)(i) the sales or production, or both, of such firm have
decreased absolutely; and

(ii)(I) imports of articles or services like or directly
competitive with articles produced or services supplied by
such firm have increased; and

(iii) the increase in imports described in clause (ii)
contributed importantly to such workers' separation or
threat of separation and to the decline in the sales or
production of such firm.

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on December 29, 2009 by a company official on behalf of
workers of Muller Martini Mailroom Systems, Inc., including on-
site leased workers from McCallion Staffing and HTSS, Inc.,
Allentown, Pennsylvania (Muller Martini). The workers were
engaged in activities related to the production of high speed
injector equipment for the newspaper industry.
The investigation revealed that workers of Muller Martini,
who were engaged in activities related to the production of high
speed injector equipment, meet the criteria for certification.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant
proportion of the workers at the subject firm have been
separated.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(i) has been met because the sales
and/or production of high speed injector equipment by Muller
Martini has declined during the relevant period.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(ii) has been met because imports of
articles or services like or directly competitive with high
speed injector equipment produced by Muller Martini have
increased.
Specifically, foreign competitors of the subject firm were
awarded contracts during bidding processes to produce high
speed injector equipment for domestic customers.
Finally, Section 222(a)(2)(A)(iii) has been met because
the imports of high speed injector equipment by major
potential domestic customers of Muller Martini contributed
importantly to the worker group separations and
sales/production declines at Muller Martini.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Muller Martini
Mailroom Systems, Inc., including on-site leased workers from
McCallion Staffing and HTSS, Inc., Allentown, Pennsylvania,
who are engaged in activities related to the production of high
speed injector equipment, 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 Muller Martini Mailroom Systems, Inc.,
including on-site leased workers from McCallion Staffing
and HTSS, Inc., Allentown, Pennsylvania, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
December 15, 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 2nd day of March, 2010.
