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 August 23, 2010, on behalf of workers of HAVI
Logistics, North America, a subsidiary of HAVI Group, Lp,
Davis, California (HAVI Davis). The workers are engaged in
activities related to purchasing and customer service for all
the HAVI Logistics, North America operating facilities which
provided food distribution. The workers are not separately
identifiable by services. The worker group includes on-site
leased workers from Office Team.
The investigation revealed that workers of HAVI Davis who
were engaged in activities related to purchasing and customer
service meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number or
proportion of the workers in the workers' firm have become
totally or partially separated.
Criterion II has been satisfied because the workers of
HAVI Davis are covered by certification numbers TA-W-74,306
and TA-W-74,545 issued based on a shift in services to a
foreign country, and the workers of HAVI Davis were in support
of services at HAVI Logistics, North America, Livonia,
Michigan (TA-W-74,306) and HAVI Logistics, North America,
Bloomingdale, Illinois (TA-W-74,545).
Criterion III has been met because the shift in services
by HAVI Davis contributed importantly to worker group
separations.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of HAVI Logistics, North
America, a subsidiary of HAVI Group, Lp, including on-site
leased workers from Office Team, Davis, California, who are
engaged in employment related to purchasing and customer service
for all the HAVI Logistics, North America operating facilities
which provided food distribution 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 HAVI Logistics, North America, a
subsidiary of HAVI Group, Lp, including on-site leased
workers from Office Team, Davis, California, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
August 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 7th day of October, 2010
