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(c) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(c), can be satisfied if
the following criteria are met:
I. a significant number or proportion of the workers in the
workers' firm or an appropriate subdivision of the firm
have become totally or partially separated, or are
threatened to become totally or partially separated;

II. the workers' firm is a Supplier or Downstream Producer to a
firm that employed a group of workers who received a
certification of eligibility under Section 222(a) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a), and such supply or production is
related to the article or service that was the basis for
such certification; and

III. either
(A) the workers' firm is a supplier and the component parts it
supplied to the firm described in paragraph (2) accounted
for at least 20 percent of the production or sales of the
workers' firm; or
(B) a loss of business by the workers' firm with the firm
described in paragraph (2) contributed importantly to the
workers' separation or threat of separation.

Section 222(d) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(d), defines the term
"Supplier" as "a firm that produces and supplies directly to another
firm component parts for articles, or services used in the production
of articles or in the supply of services, as the case may be, that
were the basis for a certification of eligibility under subsection
(a) [of Section 222 of the Act] of a group of workers employed by
such other firm."
The investigation was initiated in response to a petition filed
on November 8, 2010, by a One-Stop Operator on behalf of workers of
Mayflower Vehicle Systems, LLC, also known as the Kings Mountain
Plant, a subsidiary of Commercial Vehicle Group, Inc., Grover, North
Carolina (Mayflower Vehicle Systems-Kings Mountain Plant). The
workers are engaged in employment related to the production of truck
cabs for Class 8 heavy duty trucks. The worker group includes on-
site leased workers from Personnel Services Limited.
The investigation revealed that workers of Mayflower Vehicle
Systems-Kings Mountain Plant, who are engaged in the production of
truck cabs, meet the criteria as Suppliers for secondary worker
certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant proportion or
number of workers at Mayflower Vehicle Systems-Kings Mountain Plant
has been totally or partially separated, or threatened with such
separation, during the relevant period.
Criterion II has been met because workers of Mayflower Vehicle
Systems-Kings Mountain Plant produce component parts that are
directly supplied to firms that employ worker groups eligible to
apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA), and the component
parts supplied were related to the production of the article that
was the basis for the TAA certifications.
Criterion III has been met because the component parts
supplied by Mayflower Vehicle Systems-Kings Mountain Plant to the
previously TAA-Certified firms accounted for at least 20 percent of
the production or sales of the subject firm.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the investigation,
I determine that workers of Mayflower Vehicle Systems-Kings Mountain
Plant, including on-site leased workers from Personnel Services
Limited, Grover, North Carolina, who are engaged in employment
related to the production of truck cabs for class 8 heavy duty
trucks, meet the worker group certification criteria under Section
222(c) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(c). In accordance with Section
223 of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2273, I make the following certification:







"All workers of Mayflower Vehicle Systems, LLC, also known as
the Kings Mountain Plant, a subsidiary of Commercial Vehicle
Group, Inc., including on-site leased workers from Personnel
Services Limited, Grover, North Carolina, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after November 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 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 29th day of December, 2010
