INCLUDING ON-SITE LEASED WORKERS FROM
AEROTEK, CORPORATE MANAGEMENT GROUP (CMG),
MARATHON STAFFING, AND EXCEL PERSONNEL, INC.
ENGLEWOOD, COLORADO


Amended 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 issued a
Certification of Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment
Assistance on June 18, 2012, applicable to workers of Accellent,
Englewood, Colorado, including on-site leased workers from Aerotek,
Corporate Management Group (CMG), and Marathon Staffing. The
Department’s notice of determination was published in the Federal
Register on July 10, 2012 (77 FR 40641).
At the request of a company official, the Department reviewed
the certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers
were engaged in production of medical device components.
The company reports that workers leased from Excel Personnel,
Inc. were employed on-site at the Englewood, Colorado location of
Accellent. The Department has determined that these workers were
sufficiently under the control of the subject firm to be considered
leased workers.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending this
certification to include workers leased from Excel Personnel, Inc.
working on-site at the Englewood, Colorado location of Accellent.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-81,603 is hereby issued
as follows:
"All workers of Accellent, including on-site leased
workers from Aerotek, Corporate Management Group (CMG),
Marathon Staffing, and Excel Personnel, Inc., Englewood,
Colorado, who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after May 10, 2010, through June 18,
2014, 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 21st day of August, 2012

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:
(1) a significant number or proportion of the workers
in such workers' firm have become totally or partially
separated, or are threatened to become totally or
partially separated;
(2)(B)(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
(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; AND
(ii) the shift/acquisition must have
contributed importantly to the workers’
separation or threat of separation.

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on May 11, 2012 by a company official on behalf of workers of
Accellent, Englewood, Colorado. The workers’ firm is engaged in
activities related to the production of medical device components.
The subject group includes on-site leased workers from Aerotek,
Corporate Management Group (CMG), and Marathon Staffing.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant number or
proportion of the workers in such workers’ firm have become totally
or partially separated, or are threatened to become totally or
partially separated.
Section 222(a)(2)(B) has been met because the workers’ firm
has shifted to a foreign country the production of an article that
is like or directly competitive with the medical device components
produced by the workers which contributed importantly to worker
group separations at Accellent
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Accellent, including on-
site leased workers from Aerotek, Corporate Management Group (CMG),
and Marathon Staffing, Englewood, Colorado, who are engaged in
activities related to the production of medical device 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 Accellent, including leased on site workers of
Aerotek, Corporate Management Group (CMG), and Marathon
Staffing, Englewood, Colorado, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after May 10, 2011 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.”
