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 January 13, 2016 by company official on behalf of
Emerson Network Power, a subsidiary of Emerson, including
workers whose wages are reported through Liebert Corporation
and Liebert North America, Inc., Delaware, Ohio (herein known
as "Emerson Network Power" or "workers' firm"). The workers'
firm is engaged in activities related to the production of
uninterrupted power supplies. Specifically, the workers are
engaged in activities related to the production of uninterrupted
power supplies, power distribution, switching equipment, warehousing,
and distribution of micro UPS.
Workers of the subject firm were certified eligible to
apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) on February 20,
2014 due to a shift in the production of uninterrupted power
supplies to a foreign country. The certification expires on
February 20, 2016.
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 Emerson Network Power.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Emerson Network
Power, a subsidiary of Emerson, including workers whose wages
are reported through Liebert Corporation and Liebert North
America, Inc., Delaware, Ohio, who are engaged in activities
related to the production of production of uninterrupted power
supplies 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 Emerson Network Power, a subsidiary of
Emerson, including workers whose wages are reported
through Liebert Corporation and Liebert North America,
Inc., Delaware, Ohio, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after February 21, 2016
through two years from the date of certification, and all
workers in the group threatened with total or partial
separation from employment on February 21, 2016 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 31st day of January, 2016
