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 November 28, 2012 by a company official on behalf of
workers of Faurecia, Emissions Control Technologies Division,
Dexter, Missouri (FECT). The subject workers are engaged in
employment related to the production of exhaust system
components and systems. The worker group includes on-site
leased workers from Express Employment Professionals and
Manpower.
Workers of the subject firm were certified eligible to
apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) under TA-W-75,016
(certification expires on January 25, 2013).
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 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 acquired from a foreign country articles like or
directly competitive with articles produced by the workers
which contributed importantly to worker group separations at
Faurecia, Emissions Control Technologies Division, Dexter,
Missouri.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Faurecia, Emissions
Control Technologies Division, Dexter, Missouri, who are/were
engaged in employment related to the production of exhaust
system and component systems, 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 Faurecia, Emissions Control Technologies
Division, including on-site leased workers from Express
Employment Professionals and Manpower, Dexter, Missouri,
who became totally or partially separated from employment
on or after January 26, 2013, 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."
Signed in Washington, D.C., this 19th day of December, 2012
