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 June 24, 2010, by a company official on behalf of
workers of The Boeing Company, Engineering Operations and
Technology Division and Information Technology Division, Long
Beach, California (TA-W-74,293), Anaheim, California (TA-W-
74,293A), El Segundo, California (TA-W-74,293B), Huntington
Beach, California (TA-W-74,293C), Irvine, California (TA-W-
74,293D), Lemoore, California (TA-W-74,293E), and Seal Beach,
California (TA-W-74,293F). The workers supply information
technology services for their firm.
The investigation revealed that workers of The Boeing
Company who are engaged in employment related to information
technology services meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number of
workers have become separated or are threatened to become
separated during the relevant period.
Criterion II has been satisfied because the workers' firm
has shifted to a foreign country services like or directly
competitive with the services supplied by the workers.
Criterion III has been met because the shift of
information technology services by The Boeing Company
contributed importantly to worker group separations at the
California locations.


Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of The Boeing Company,
Engineering Operations and Technology Division and Information
Technology Division, Long Beach, California (TA-W-74,293),
Anaheim, California (TA-W-74,293A), El Segundo, California (TA-
W-74,293B), Huntington Beach, California (TA-W-74,293C), Irvine,
California (TA-W-74,293D), Lemoore, California (TA-W-74,293E),
and Seal Beach, California (TA-W-74,293F), who are engaged in
employment related to information technology 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 The Boeing Company, Engineering Operations
and Technology Division and Information Technology
Division, Long Beach, California (TA-W-74,293), The Boeing
Company, Engineering Operations and Technology Division and
Information Technology Division, Anaheim, California (TA-W-

(TA-W-74,293F), who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after June 7, 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."
