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; and

(2)(A)(i) the sales or production, or both, of such firm have
decreased absolutely; and
(ii)(I) imports of articles or services like or directly
competitive with articles produced or services supplied by
such firm have increased; and
(iii) the increase in imports described in clause (ii)
contributed importantly to such workers' separation or
threat of separation and to the decline in the sales or
production of such firm.

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on April 27, 2016 by a company official on behalf of
workers of CDR Manufacturing, Inc., a subsidiary of KeyTronic
Corporation, Harrodsburg, Kentucky (subject firm). The workers'
firm is engaged in activities related to the production of
printed circuit assembly boards. The workers are not separately
identifiable by article produced.
The subject worker group does not include on-site leased
workers.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm and its major declining
customer(s).
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)(A)(i) has been met because the sales
and/or production of printed circuit assembly boards by the
subject firm have decreased absolutely.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(ii) has been met because imports of
articles like or directly competitive with printed circuit
assembly boards have increased during the relevant period when
compared to the representative base period.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(iii) has been met because increased
customer imports contributed importantly to the worker group
separations and sales/production declines at the subject firm.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of CDR Manufacturing,
Inc., Harrodsburg, Kentucky, who are engaged in activities
related to the production of printed circuit assembly boards,
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 CDR Manufacturing, Inc., a subsidiary of
KeyTronic Corporation, Harrodsburg, Kentucky, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
April 27, 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 9th day of December 2016.
