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 July 19, 2010 on behalf of workers of Laserwords U.S.,
Inc., a subsidiary of Laserwords Private LTD, Lewiston, Maine.
The workers are engaged in activities related to prepress
services. The worker group includes on-site leased workers from
Kelly Services.
The investigation revealed that workers of Laserwords U.S.,
Inc., a subsidiary of Laserwords Private LTD, Lewiston, Maine,
who are engaged in prepress services, meet the criteria for
certification.
Criterion I has been satisfied because a significant
proportion of the workers have been separated or are
threatened with separation during the relevant period.
Criterion II has been satisfied because the workers' firm
has shifted prepress services to a foreign country during the
relevant period.
Criterion III has been met because the shift of services
contributed importantly to worker group separations at the
Lewiston, Maine location.


Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Laserwords U.S.,
Inc., a subsidiary of Laserwords Private LTD, including on-site
leased workers from Kelly Services, Lewiston, Maine, who are
engaged in prepress 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 Laserwords U.S., Inc., a subsidiary of
Laserwords Private LTD, including on-site leased workers
from Kelly Services, Lewiston, Maine, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after June 11,
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 13th day of August, 2010
