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 by a company official on November 17, 2010 on behalf of
workers of Haldex Brake Products Corporation, including on-site
leased workers from Manpower, Grand Haven, Michigan. The
workers produce height control values and components for semi
trucks and trailers.
The investigation revealed that workers of Haldex Brake
Products Corporation, Grand Haven, Michigan, who are engaged
in employment related to production of height control values
and components, meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant proportion
of the workers are threatened with total or partial
separations.
Criterion II has been satisfied because the workers' firm
has committed to shift to a foreign country the production of
articles like or directly competitive with the articles
produced by the workers.
Criterion III has been met because the shift in
production contributed importantly to threatened worker group
separations at Haldex Brake Products Corporation, Grand Haven,
Michigan.

Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Haldex Brake Products
Corporation, Grand Haven, Michigan, who are engaged in
employment related to production of height control values and
components, 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 Haldex Brake Products Corporation,
including on-site leased workers from Manpower, Grand
Haven, Michigan, who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after November 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 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 14th day of December, 2010
