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 March 10, 2010, applicable to workers
of Intel Corporation, Fab 20 Division, including on-site leased
workers of Volt Technical Resources, Staff Finders Technical and
Kelly Services, Hillsboro, Oregon. The notice will be published
soon in the Federal Register.
At the request of the subject firm, the Department reviewed
the certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers
are engaged in activities related to the production of chipsets.
The company reports that workers leased from Retronix
International, Manpower-Oregon and Nikon Precision, Inc. were
employed on-site at the Hillsboro, Oregon location of Intel
Corporation, Fab 20 Division. 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 Retronix
International, Manpower-Oregon and Nikon Precision, Inc. working
on-site at the Hillsboro, Oregon location of Intel Corporation,
Fab 20 Division.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-73,642 is hereby
issued as follows:
“All workers of Intel Corporation, Fab 20 Division,
including on-site leased workers from Volt Technical
Resources, Staff Finders Technical, Kelly Services,
Retronix International, Manpower-Oregon and Nikon
Precision, Inc., Hillsboro, Oregon who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after March 3,
2009, through March 10, 2012, 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.”

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 5, 2010 by a company official on behalf of
workers of Intel Corporation, Fab 20 Division, Hillsboro,
Oregon. The workers are engaged in employment related to the
production of chipsets. The workers are not separately
identifiable by product line. The worker group also includes on-
site leased workers of Volt Technical Resources, Staff Finders
Technical and Kelly Services.
The investigation revealed that workers of Intel
Corporation, Fab 20 Division who are engaged in employment
related to the production of chipsets, meet the criteria for
certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant portion of
the workers are threatened with separation at the Hillsboro,
Oregon location.
Criterion II has been met because the workers’ firm is
shifting production to a foreign country of articles like or
directly competitive with the articles produced by the
workers’ firm at the Hillsboro, Oregon location.
Criterion III has been met because the shift in
production to Ireland and China by Intel Corporation
contributed importantly to worker separations at the
Hillsboro, Oregon facility.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Intel Corporation,
Fab 20 Division, including on-site leased workers of Volt
Technical Resources, Staff Finders Technical and Kelly Services,
Hillsboro, Oregon 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 Intel Corporation, Fab 20 Division,
including on-site leased workers of Volt Technical
Resources, Staff Finders Technical and Kelly Services,
Hillsboro, Oregon 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.”
