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 September 3, 2010 on behalf of workers of Danfoss
Chatloff, LLC, a subsidiary of Danfoss A/S, Buda, Texas
(Danfoss).
Workers at the subject firm are engaged in activities
relating to the production of components for heating and air
conditioning units for residential and commercial use. Workers
are not separately identifiable by product.
The subject firm also leased on-site workers from Hawkins
Personnel Group and Aerotek during the relevant period.
The investigation revealed that workers of Danfoss are
engaged in employment activities related to the production of
components for heating and air conditioning units meet the
criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number of
workers at the firm have been separated during the relevant
period.
Criterion II has been satisfied because the workers' firm
is shifting to a foreign country the production of articles
like or directly competitive with the articles produced by the
workers at the subject firm.
Criterion III has been met because the shift of
production of components for heating and air conditioning units
to Mexico contributed importantly to worker group separations
at Danfoss Chatloff, LLC, a subsidiary of Danfoss A/S, Buda,
Texas.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Danfoss Chatloff,
LLC, a subsidiary of Danfoss A/S, Buda, Texas, including on-site
leased workers from Hawkins Personnel Group and Aerotek, who
are engaged in employment related to the production of
components for heating and air conditioning units 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 Danfoss Chatloff, LLC, a subsidiary of
Danfoss A/S, Buda, Texas, including on-site leased workers
from Hawkins Personnel Group and Aerotek, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
September 2, 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,"
Signed in Washington, D.C., this 21st day of September, 2010.
