Accordingly, the Department is amending this certification

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 December 11, 2015 on behalf of workers of D+H USA
Corporation, a subsidiary of DH Corporation, Portland, Oregon
(TA-W-91,211) and Bothell, Washington (TA-W-91,211A)
(hereafter collectively referred to as "D+H USA Corporation").
The workers' firm is engaged in activities related to the supply
of client support, research and development and technical
operations services. The worker group at the Portland, Oregon
location includes on-site leased workers from Alexander
Connections, LLC and Volt; the worker group at the Bothell,
Washington location includes on-site leased workers from Volt.
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 D+H USA Corporation 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 acquired from a foreign country services like or
directly competitive with services supplied by the workers which
contributed importantly to worker group separations at D+H USA
Corporation.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of D+H USA Corporation,
a subsidiary of DH Corporation, Portland, Oregon (TA-W-91,211)
and Bothell, Washington (TA-W-91,211A), who are engaged in
activities related to the supply of client support, research and
development and technical operations services, 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 D+H USA Corporation, a subsidiary of DH
Corporation, including on-site leased workers from
Alexander Connections, LLC and Volt, Portland, Oregon
(TA-W-91,211) and D+H USA Corporation, a subsidiary of DH
Corporation, including on-site leased workers from Volt,
Bothell, Washington (TA-W-91,211A), who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after December
10, 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 23rd day of February 2016.
