FAURECIA EMISSIONS CONTROL TECHNOLOGIES
INCLUDING ON-SITE LEASED WORKERS FROM ADECCO EMPLOYMENT SERVCIES
AND EMCON TECHNOLOGIES
TROY, MICHIGAN

Amended 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 issued a
Certification of Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment
Assistance on June 10, 2010, applicable to workers of Faurecia
Emissions Control Technologies, Troy, Michigan, including on-site
leased workers from Adecco Employment Services, Troy, Michigan.
The Department’s notice of determination was published in the
Federal Register on July 1, 2010 (75 FR 38137).
At the request of the state agency, the Department reviewed
the certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers
were engaged in activities related to the supply of corporate
shared services such as information technology, financial, human
resources, and purchasing support.
The company reports that workers leased from Emcon
Technologies were employed on-site at the Troy, Michigan location
of Faurecia Emissions Control Technologies. The Department has
determined that these workers were sufficiently under the control
of the subject firm to be considered leased workers.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending this
certification to include workers leased from Emcon Technologies
working on-site at the Troy, Michigan location of Faurecia
Emissions Control Technologies.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-73,609 is hereby issued
as follows:
"All workers of Faurecia Emissions Control Technologies,
including on-site leased workers from Adecco Employment
Services and Emcon Technologies, Troy, Michigan, who
became totally or partially separated from employment on
or after February 22, 2009, through June 10, 2012, 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.”

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 March 3, 2010 by a company official on behalf of workers
of Faurecia Emissions Control Technologies, Troy, Michigan. The
workers are engaged in activities related to the supply of
corporate shared services such as information technology,
financial, human resources, and purchasing support. The worker
group includes on-site leased workers from Adecco Employment
Services.
The investigation revealed that workers of Faurecia Emissions
Control Technologies who are engaged in activities related to the
supply of corporate shared services meet the criteria for
certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number of
workers have been separated or threatened with separation during
the relevant period.
Criterion II has been satisfied because the workers’ firm
has shifted to a foreign country the supply of services like or
directly competitive with the services supplied by the workers.
Criterion III has been met because the shift of corporate
shared services by Faurecia Emissions Control Technologies
contributed importantly to worker group separations at the Troy,
Michigan facility.


Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Faurecia Emissions
Control Technologies, Troy, Michigan who are engaged in activities
related to the supply of corporate shared services 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 Faurecia Emissions Control Technologies,
including on-site leased workers from Adecco Employment
Services, Troy, Michigan who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after February 22, 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.”
