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 20, 2010 by a company official on behalf of
workers of DORMA Door Controls, Inc., a subsidiary of DORMA
Vertrieb International GmbH, Reamstown, Pennsylvania (DORMA).
The workers are engaged in production of door architectural
hardware which includes hydraulic doors, low energy automatic
door closure, pivots, and glass hardware for the architectural
opening industry. The worker group does not include on-site
leased workers.
The investigation revealed that the subject worker group
meets the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number or
proportion of the subject worker group were separated from
DORMA during the relevant period.
Criterion II has been met because DORMA has shifted to a
foreign country the production of articles like or directly
competitive with the door architectural hardware produced by
the workers.
Criterion III has been met because the shift of
production of door architectural hardware to Singapore
contributed importantly to worker group separations at DORMA,
Reamstown, Pennsylvania.


Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of DORMA Door Controls,
Inc., Reamstown, Pennsylvania, who are engaged in employment
related to the production of door architectural hardware, 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 DORMA Door Controls, Inc., a subsidiary of
DORMA Vertrieb International GmbH, Reamstown, Pennsylvania,
who became totally or partially separated from employment
on or after September 16, 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 29th day of October, 2010
