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 October 19, 2010, by a One-Stop Operator on behalf of
workers of Continental Graphics Corporation, also known as CDG
Datagraphics, a subsidiary of The Boeing Company, Bellevue,
Washington (CGC). The worker group includes on-site leased
workers from Excell and Harvey Nash. The workers supply
information technology (IT) services for CDC and The Boeing
Company.
The investigation revealed that workers of CGC, including
on-site leased workers of Excell and Harvey Nash, who are
engaged in employment related to the supply of IT services,
meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number or
proportion of workers at CGC has become totally or partially
separated, or are threatened with such separation.
Criterion II has been met because The Boeing Company has
shifted to foreign countries the supply of services like or
directly competitive with the IT services supplied by the
subject workers.
Criterion III has been met because the shift of services
abroad contributed importantly to worker group separations at
CGC, Bellevue, Washington.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Continental Graphics
Corporation, Bellevue, Washington, who are engaged in employment
related to the supply of 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 Continental Graphics Corporation, also
known as CDG Datagraphics, a subsidiary of The Boeing
Company, including on-site leased workers from Excell and
Harvey Nash, Bellevue, Washington, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after October 15,
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."
