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 July 29, 2015, applicable to workers of
Baker Hughes Incorporated, Claremore, Oklahoma (TA-W-85,954),
Baker Hughes Incorporated, Broken Arrow, Oklahoma (TA-W-
85,954A), and Baker Hughes Incorporated, Hampton, Arkansas
(TA-W-85,954B). The Department’s notice of determination was
published in the Federal Register on September 22, 2015 (80 FR
57220).
At the request of a worker, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers were
engaged in activities related to the production of oil field
tools (pumps, motors, seals, safety valves, and composite
plugs).
The company reports that workers leased from Kelly Services
were employed on-site at the Claremore, Oklahoma location of
Baker Hughes Incorporated. 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 Kelly Services
working on-site at Claremore, Oklahoma location of Baker Hughes
Incorporated.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-85,954 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of Baker Hughes Incorporated, including
on-site leased workers from Kelly Services,
Claremore, Oklahoma (TA-W-85,954), Baker Hughes
Incorporated, Broken Arrow, Oklahoma (TA-W-85,954A),
and Baker Hughes Incorporated, Hampton, Arkansas (TA-
W-85,954B), who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after April 22, 2014 through
July 29, 2017, 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 19th day of April, 2016.

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; and
(2)(A)(i) the sales or production, or both, of such firm have
decreased absolutely; and
(ii)(I) imports of articles or services like or directly
competitive with articles produced or services supplied
by such firm have increased; and
(iii) the increase in imports described in clause (ii)
contributed importantly to such workers' separation or
threat of separation and to the decline in the sales or
production of such firm.
The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on April 23, 2015 on behalf of workers of Baker Hughes
Incorporated, Claremore, Oklahoma (TA-W-85,954), Baker Hughes,
Incorporated, Broken Arrow, Oklahoma (TA-W-85,954A), and Baker
Hughes Incorporated, Hampton, Arkansas (TA-W-85,954B)
(collectively referred to as "Baker Hughes"). The workers' firm
is engaged in activities related to the production of oil field
tools.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm and the petitioners.
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)(A)(i) has been met because the sales and
production of oil field tools have decreased absolutely.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(ii) has been met because imports of
articles like or directly competitive with the oil field tools
produced by Baker Hughes have increased.
Finally, Section 222(a)(2)(A)(iii) has been met because
increased imports contributed importantly to the worker group
separations and sales and production declines at Baker Hughes.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Baker Hughes
Incorporated, Claremore, Oklahoma (TA-W-85,954), Broken Arrow,
Oklahoma (TA-W-85,954A), and Hampton, Arkansas (TA-W-85,954B),
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 Baker Hughes Incorporated, Claremore,
Oklahoma (TA-W-85,954), Baker Hughes, Incorporated, Broken
Arrow, Oklahoma (TA-W-85,954A), and Baker Hughes
Incorporated, Hampton, Arkansas (TA-W-85,954B), who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
April 22, 2014, 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."
