HOLDINGS, INC.
INCLUDING ON-SITE LEASED WORKERS FROM MANPOWER

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 July 16, 2015 by a State Workforce Office on behalf of
workers of Airtex Products, L.P., a subsidiary of Airtex
Industries, LLC and UCI-Airtex Holdings, Inc., Fairfield,
Illinois (herein referred to as "Airtex" or "worker group" or
workers' firm"). The worker group includes on-site leased
workers from Manpower. The workers' firm is engaged in
activities related to the production of electrical and
mechanical fuel pumps.
The worker group was previously certified eligible to apply
for Trade Adjustment Assistance under petition number TA-W-
83,217. The certification expires on December 24, 2015.
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 production of articles
like or directly competitive with the articles produced by the
workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at Airtex Products, L.P.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Airtex Products,
L.P., a subsidiary of Airtex Industries, LLC and UCI-Airtex
Holdings, Inc., Fairfield, Illinois, who are engaged in
activities related to the production of electrical and
mechanical fuel pumps 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 Airtex Products, L.P., a subsidiary of
Airtex Industries, LLC and UCI-Airtex Holdings, Inc.,
including on-site leased workers from Manpower,
Fairfield, Illinois, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after December 25, 2015
through two years from the date of certification, and all
workers in the group threatened with total or partial
separation from employment on December 25, 2015 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 3rd day of November 2015.
