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 November 30, 2015 on behalf of workers of Motorola
Solutions, Inc., Hardware Engineering team, which is part of
the Infrastructure Products/Systems Organization, Schaumburg,
Illinois (Motorola Solutions, Inc.). The workers' firm is
engaged in activities related to the production of hardware
components for Motorola's communication systems; specifically;
the workers supply engineering and design services in support
of the firm's production of hardware components. The workers at
Motorola Solutions, Inc. are separately identifiable by support
service and product they support.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm and the petitioner.
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 supply of a service
like or directly competitive with the service supplied by the
workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at Motorola Solutions, Inc.

Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Motorola Solutions,
Inc., Hardware Engineering team, a part of the Infrastructure
Products/Systems Organization, Schaumburg, Illinois, who are
engaged in activities related to the supply of engineering and
design services in support of the firm's production of
hardware components 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 Motorola Solutions, Inc., Hardware
Engineering team, a part of the Infrastructure
Products/Systems Organization, Schaumburg, Illinois, who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after November 30, 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 14th day of March 2016.
