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 August 24, 2015 on behalf of workers of Jabil Circuit,
Inc., Memphis Plant Division, Memphis, Tennessee (Jabil-Memphis
Plant). The workers' firm is engaged in activities related to the
production of end-user computer storage servers. The subject
worker group includes on-site leased workers from Select Staffing
and Talent Force Temporaries.
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 at Jabil-Memphis Plant 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 a(n) article
like or directly competitive with the article produced by the
subject workers, which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at Jabil-Memphis Plant.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Jabil Circuit, Inc.,
Memphis Plant Division, Memphis, Tennessee, who are engaged in
activities related to the production of end-user computer storage
servers, 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 Jabil Circuit, Inc., Memphis Plant Division,
including on-site leased workers from Select Staffing and
Talent Force Temporaries, Memphis, Tennessee, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
January 1, 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."
