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 by a company official on June 15, 2012 on behalf of
workers of JDS Uniphase, Communications Test and Measurement
Division, including on-site leased workers from Randstad
SourceRight, Indianapolis, Indiana. The workers' firm is
engaged in activities related to the production of
communications test equipment.
Workers of JDS Uniphase, Communications Test and
Measurement Division, Indianapolis, Indiana were covered under
a previous certification (TA-W-71,157) that expired on July
29, 2011. That certification did not include the on-site
leased workers from Randstad SourceRight.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant
number or proportion of the workers at JDS Uniphase 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 acquired from a foreign country articles like or
directly competitive with the communications test equipment
produced by the workers which contributed importantly to
worker group separations at JDS Uniphase.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of JDS Uniphase,
Communications Test and Measurement Division, Indianapolis,
Indiana, who are engaged in activities related to production
of communications test equipment, 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 JDS Uniphase, Communications Test and
Measurement Division, Indianapolis, Indiana, (TA-W-
81,722) who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after July 30, 2011, 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,




AND
All leased workers from Randstad SourceRight, working on-
site at JDS Uniphase, Communications Test and Measurement
Division, Indianapolis, Indiana, (TA-W-81,722A) who
became totally or partially separated from employment on
or after June 14, 2011, 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 26th day of June, 2012
