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 dregarding
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 February 09, 2011 on behalf of workers of TydenBrooks
Security Product Group, Newton, New Jersey. The workers
produce tamper evident indicative seals for security
applications. The worker group includes on-site leased workers
from Telesearch Staffing and Express Employment Professionals.
The investigation revealed that workers of TydenBrooks
Security Products Group, Newton, New Jersey, who are engaged
in activities related to production of tamper evident
indicative seals, meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number of
workers are threatened with separation during the relevant
period.
Criterion II has been satisfied because the workers' firm
has shifted 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 worker group separations
at the Newton, New Jersey facility.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of TydenBrooks Security
Products Group, Newton, New Jersey, who are engaged in
activities related to production of tamper evident indicative
seals, 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 TydenBrooks Security Products Group,
including on-site leased workers from Telesearch Staffing
and Express Employment Professionals, Newton, New Jersey,
who became totally or partially separated from employment
on or after February 8, 2010, 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., 28th day of February, 2011
