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 February 17, 2016 by a representative from the State
Workforce Office on behalf of workers of Pall Corporation,
Finance Organization, Accounts Payable and General Ledger, Port
Washington, New York. The workers' firm is a manufacturer and
service provider of filtration and purification products. The
subject worker group is engaged in activities related to
transactional financial services, specifically accounts payable
and general ledger.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm and the petitioner.
Workers of Pall Corporation, Finance Organization, Accounts
Payable and General Ledger, Port Washington, New York were
previously certified under TA-W-82,977 for a shift of services.
The certification under TA-W-82,977 expired on September 12,
2015.
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 services
like or directly competitive with the services supplied by the
workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at Pall Corporation, Finance Organization, Accounts
Payable and General Ledger, Port Washington, New York.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Pall Corporation,
Finance Organization, Accounts Payable and General Ledger, Port
Washington, New York, who are engaged in activities related to
the supply of accounts payable and general ledger transactional
financial 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 Pall Corporation, Finance Organization,
Accounts Payable and General Ledger, Port Washington, New
York, who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after September 13, 2015 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 15th day of April 2016.
