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 20, 2013 by the Graphic Communications
International Union, International Brotherhood of Teamsters
(GCC/IBT) Boston Local 600M on behalf of workers of Avery
Products, a publicly reporting operating segment of CCL
Industries, Inc., Chicopee, Massachusetts (TA-W-83,227) and
Avery Products, a publicly reporting operating segment of CCL
Industries, Inc., Holliston, Massachusetts (TA-W-83,227A)
("Avery"). The workers' firm is engaged in activities related
to the production of office products such as binders, labels,
dividers, writing instrument, etc.
The worker group includes workers whose unemployment
insurance (UI) wages were reported through Avery Dennison (FEINs
46-1577767 and 04-1652110), on-site leased workers from United
Personnel, Zero Chaos, Integration International, and Manpower
at the Chicopee, Massachusetts location (TA-W-83,227), and on-
site leased workers from Robert Half at the Holliston,
Massachusetts location (TA-W-83,227A).
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 shifted to a foreign country the production of articles
like or directly competitive with articles produced by the
workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at Avery.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Avery Products, a
publicly reporting operating segment of CCL Industries, Inc.,
including on-site leased workers from United Personnel, Zero
Chaos, Integration International, and Manpower, Chicopee,
Massachusetts (TA-W-83,227) and Avery Products, a publicly
reporting operating segment of CCL Industries, Inc., including
on-site leased workers from Robert Half, Holliston,
Massachusetts (TA-W-83,227A), who are engaged in activities
related to the production of office products, 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 Avery Products, a publicly reporting
operating segment of CCL Industries, Inc., including on-
site leased workers from United Personnel, Zero Chaos,
Integration International, and Manpower, Chicopee,
Massachusetts (TA-W-83,227) and Avery Products, a
publicly reporting operating segment of CCL Industries,
Inc., including on-site leased workers from Robert Half
Holliston, Massachusetts (TA-W-83,227A), who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
November 19, 2012 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 17th day of December, 2013.
