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 September 10, 2010 by a company official on behalf of
workers of Parker Hannifin Corporation (Fontana Location),
Medical Systems Division, including on-site leased workers
from Workforce Solutions and Office Team, Fontana, California
(herein referred to as "Parker Hannifin"). The workers' firm
is engaged in activities related to the production of
thermoplastic injected molded components for original
equipment manufacturers.
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 an
article like or directly competitive with the article produced
by the workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at Parker Hannifin.


Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Parker Hannifin
Corporation (Fontana Location), Medical Systems Division,
including on-site leased workers from Workforce Solutions and
Office Team, Fontana, California, who are engaged in activities
related to the production of thermoplastic injected molded
components for original equipment manufacturers 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 Parker Hannifin Corporation (Fontana
Location), Medical Systems Division, including on-site
leased workers from Workforce Solutions and Office Team,
Fontana, California, 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."
Signed in Washington, D.C. this 29th day of October 2015.
