Notice of Revised Determination
on Reconsideration

On June 8, 2010, the Department issued a Notice of Termination
of Investigation, stating that the petitioning worker group is part
of an on-going investigation (TA-W-72,851). On June 30, 2010, the
Department issued a Notice of Revised Termination of Investigation
because the certification of TA-W-72,851 (issued on June 23, 2010)
did not include workers of Hewlett Packard, and began an
investigation to determine whether workers and former workers of
Hewlett Packard, Global Product Development, working on-site at
General Motors Corporation, Milford, Michigan, are eligible to
apply for TAA.
Information obtained by the Department revealed that Hewlett
Packard’s Global Product Development unit consists of three
separately identifiable worker groups: the Non-Information
Technology Business Development Team, the Engineering Application
Support Team, and the Engineering Workstation Refresh Team.
On February 2, 2011, the Department issued an amended
certification of TA-W-72,851 that included workers of Hewlett
Packard, Global Product Development, Non-Information Technology
Business Development Team and Engineering Application Support Team,
working on-site at General Motors Corporation, Milford, Michigan.
Because workers of Hewlett Packard, Global Product Development,
Engineering Workstation Refresh Team (HP-EWRT) are not covered by
the amendment, the Department continued with the investigation.
The Department has determined that the workers of HP-EWRT,
who are engaged in employment related to the supply of
information technology (IT) services, meet the criteria as
Suppliers for secondary worker certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number or
proportion of the workers of HP-EWRT has become totally or
partially separated, or are threatened with separation.
Criterion II has been met because workers of HP-EWRT supplied
services to a firm that employed a worker group eligible to apply
for TAA and the services supplied are related to the article or
service that was the basis for the TAA certification.
Criterion III has been met because the loss of business by
HP-EWRT with the aforementioned firm, with respect to IT services
supplied to the firm, contributed importantly to subject worker
separations at HP-EWRT, Milford, Michigan.
Conclusion
After careful review of the additional facts obtained on
reconsideration, I determine that workers of Hewlett Packard,
Global Product Development, Engineering Workstation Refresh Team,
Milford, Michigan, who are engaged in employment related to the
supply of information technology (IT) services, meet the worker
group certification criteria under Section 222(c) of the Act, 19
U.S.C. § 2272(c). In accordance with Section 223 of the Act, 19
U.S.C. § 2273, I make the following certification:
"All workers of Hewlett Packard, Global Product Development,
Engineering Workstation Refresh Team, working on-site at
General Motors Corporation, Milford, Michigan, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
February 9, 2009, through two years from the date of this
revised 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.”

Notice of Termination of Investigation

Pursuant to Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended,
an investigation was initiated in response to a petition filed on
February 18, 2010 on behalf of workers of Hewlett Packard (HP),
Global Product Development, Milford, Michigan. The investigation
revealed that the workers are working on-site at General Motors
Corp., Milford, Michigan.
The petitioning group of workers is under an existing
petition (TA-W-72,851) filed on November 16, 2009 that is the
subject of an ongoing investigation for which a determination has
not yet been issued. Further investigation in this case would
duplicate efforts and serve no purpose; therefore the
investigation under this petition has been terminated.

Signed at Washington, D.C. this 8th day of June, 2010
