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 August 31, 2016 by the state workforce office on behalf
of the workers of IMMUNIO USA, Inc., a subsidiary of Immun.io,
Inc., Product Engineering Division, including workers whose wages
are reported under another FEIN, Portland, Oregon (IMMUNIO-
Product Engineering). Workers of the subject firm are engaged in
activities related to the supply of engineering services. The
subject worker group does not include on-site leased workers.
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 at IMMUNIO-Product Engineering 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 engineering services supplied by the
subject workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at IMMUNIO-Product Engineering.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of IMMUNIO-Product
Engineering, who are engaged in activities related to the supply
of engineering 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 IMMUNIO USA, Inc., a subsidiary of Immun.io,
Inc., Product Engineering Division, including workers whose
wages are reported under another FEIN, Portland, Oregon, who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after August 30, 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 18th day of November 2016.
