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 October 4, 2016 by the State of Colorado on behalf of workers of
Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Global Real Estate, Colorado Springs,
Colorado (Hewlett Packard-Global Real Estate). The subject worker
group (Hewlett Packard-Global Real Estate) supplies global real
estate 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 in Hewlett Packard-Global Real Estate
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 global real estate services supplied by
the subject workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at Hewlett Packard-Global Real Estate.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the investigation,
I determine that workers of Hewlett Packard-Global Real Estate, who
are engaged in activities related to the supply of global real
estate 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 Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Global Real Estate,
Colorado Springs, Colorado, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after October 3, 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.”
