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 December 23, 2010 on behalf of workers of Auto-trol
Technology Corporation, Westminster, Colorado (Auto-trol
Westminster). The workers are engaged in activities related to
technical illustration and configuration management/document
management software development services. The worker group
includes on-site leased workers from CoreTechs.
The investigation revealed that workers of Auto-trol
Westminster who are engaged in activities related to the
supply of technical illustration and configuration
management/document management software development services
meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant proportion
of the workers in the workers' firm have become totally or
partially separated during the relevant period.
Criterion II has been satisfied because the workers' firm
has acquired from a foreign country services like or directly
competitive with technical illustration and configuration
management/document management software development services
done by the workers.
Criterion III has been met because the acquisition of
technical illustration and configuration management/document
management software development services from India, China and
Eastern Europe by Auto-trol Westminster contributed
importantly to worker group separations at Auto-trol
Westminster.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Auto-trol Technology
Corporation, including on-site leased workers from CoreTechs,
Westminster, Colorado, who are engaged in activities related to
supply of technical illustration and configuration
management/document management software development 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 Auto-trol Technology Corporation,
including on-site leased workers from CoreTechs,
Westminster, Colorado, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after December 21, 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."
