INCLUDING ON-SITE LEASED WORKERS FROM MANPOWER
GROUP, EXPERIS, BRADLEY PERSONNEL INC., GRAHAM
PERSONNEL SERVICES, AEROTEK, WORKFORCE UNLIMITED,
EXPERIS, IMPACT BUSINESS GROUP, AND CENTURY
EMPLOYER ORGANIZATION LLC
HIGH POINT, NORTH CAROLINA

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 March 10, 2015, applicable to
workers of Brayton International, a subsidiary
of Steelcase, Inc., High Point, North Carolina.
The worker group includes on-site leased workers
from Manpower Group, Experis, Bradley Personnel
Inc., Graham Personnel Services, Aerotek,
WorkForce Unlimited, Experis, and imPact Business
Group, High Point, North Carolina. The Department’s
Notice of Determination was published in the Federal
Register on April 13, 2015 (Volume 80 FR 19693).

At the request of a company official, the
Department reviewed the certification for workers of
the subject firm. The workers were engaged in
activities related to production of office furniture.

The investigation confirmed that workers
leased from Bradley Personnel Inc., Graham Personnel
Services, Aerotek, Workforce Unlimited, Experis,
imPact Business Group, and Century Employer Organization
LLC were employed on-site at the High Point, North Carolina
location of Brayton International. 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 leased workers from Century
Employer Organization LLC working on-site at the High Point,
North Carolina location of Brayton International.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-85,779 is hereby
issued as follows:

"All workers of Brayton International, a subsidiary
of Steelcase, Inc., including on-site leased workers from
Manpower Group, Experis, Bradley Personnel Inc., Graham
Personnel Services, Aerotek, Workforce Unlimited, Experis,
imPact Business Group, Century Employer Organization LLC,
High Point, North Carolina, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after March 12, 2015 through
March 10, 2017, and all workers in the group threatened with
total or partial separation from employment on the date of
certification through March 11, 2015, 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 28th day of May, 2015.

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition

significant number of workers in the workers' firm are 50 years
of age or older.

transferrable.
Finally, Section 246(a)(3)(A)(ii)(III) has been met because
