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 4, 2010 by three workers on behalf of workers of
LSI Corporation, Test and Product Engineering Group, Fort
Collins, Colorado. The workers are engaged in the supply of test
and product engineering services for networking semiconductors
and software.
The investigation revealed that workers of LSI Corporation,
Test and Product Engineering Group, who are engaged in
employment related to the supply of test and product engineering
services, meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant proportion
of the workers have become separated at the Fort Collins
location during the relevant period.
Criterion II has been met because the workers' firm is
shifting a substantial portion of services to a foreign
country of services like or directly competitive with the
services supplied by the workers' firm at the Fort Collins
facility.
Criterion III has been met because the shift in services
to China by LSI Corporation contributed importantly to worker
separations at the Fort Collins, Colorado facility.



Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of LSI Corporation, Test
and Product Engineering Group, Fort Collins, Colorado, 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 LSI Corporation, Test and Product
Engineering Group, Fort Collins, Colorado, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
March 3, 2009, through two years from the date of
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."
