CONCISE FABRICATORS, INC.
INCLUDING ON-SITE LEASED WORKERS FROM
AEROTEK AND PROGRESS SERVICES
TUCSON, ARIZONA

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 February 24, 2010 by a state workforce office on
behalf of workers of Concise Fabricators, Inc., Tucson,
Arizona. The workers produced sheet metal and metal
components. The worker group includes on-site leased workers
from Aerotek and Progress Services.
The investigation revealed that workers of Concise
Fabricators, Inc., who are engaged in employment related to
production of sheet metal and metal components, meet the
criteria for certification.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant
proportion of the workers have been separated.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(i) has been met because the sales
and production by Concise Fabricators, Inc. have decreased
absolutely.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(ii) has been met because customer
reliance on imports of articles like or directly competitive
with sheet metal and components produced by Concise
Fabricators, Inc. have increased.
Finally, Section 222(a)(2)(A)(iii) has been met because
the increased customer reliance on imports contributed
importantly to the worker group separations and
sales/production declines at Concise Fabricators, Inc.

Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Concise Fabricators,
Inc., Tucson, Arizona, who are engaged in employment related to
production of sheet metal and metal components, 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 Concise Fabricators, Inc., including on-
site leased workers from Aerotek and Progress Services,
Tucson, Arizona, who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after February 23, 2009, 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 1st day of June, 2010
