REGAL BELOIT CORPORATION
SPRINGFIELD, MISSOURI DIVISION
INCLUDING ON-SITE LEASED WORKERS
FROM PENMAC PERSONNEL SERVICES AND GCA SERVICES GROUP
SPRINGFIELD, MISSOURI

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 December 18, 2012, applicable to
workers of Regal Beloit Corporation, Springfield, Missouri
Division, including on-site leased workers from Penmac
Personnel Services, Springfield, Missouri. The Department’s
notice of determination was published in the Federal Register on
January 4, 2013 (Volume 78, FR page 781).
At the request of a state workforce office, the Department
reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm. The
workers were engaged in the production of contributing parts-
rotors, stators, endshields, shells, and shafts for 48Frame NEMA
Electrics motors for the HVAC market.
The company reports that workers leased from GCA Services
Group were employed on-site at the Springfield, Missouri
location of Regal Beloit Corporation, Springfield, Missouri
Division. 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 GCA Services Group
working on-site at the Springfield, Missori location of Regal
Beloit Corporation, Springfield, Missouri Division.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-82,199 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of GCA Services Group, reporting to Regal
Beloit Corporation, Springfield, Missouri Division,
including on-site leased workers from Penmac
Personnel Services, Springfield, Missouri, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or
after November 30, 2011, through December 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 14th day of August, 2013.

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 December 3, 2012 by a state workforce office on behalf of
workers of Regal Beloit Corporation, Springfield, Missouri
Division, Springfield, Missouri (Regal Beloit Corporation). The
workers’ firm is engaged in activities related to the production of
contributing parts- rotors, stators, endshields, shells, and
shafts. The subject worker group includes on-site leased workers
from Penmac Personnel Services.
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 Regal Beloit
Corporation.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Regal Beloit
Corporation, Springfield, Missouri Division, including on-site
leased workers from Penmac Personnel Services, Springfield,
Missouri, who are engaged in activities related to the production
of contributing parts- rotors, stators, endshields, shells, and
shafts 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 Regal Beloit Corporation, Springfield,
Missouri Division, including on-site leased workers from
Penmac Personnel Services, Springfield, Missouri, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
November 30, 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.”
Signed in Washington, D.C., this 18th day of December, 2012.
