REXNORD INDUSTRIES, LLC

INCLUDING ON-SITE LEASED WORKERS FROM STAFFMARK, RANDSTAD,
KELLY SERVICES, PROLOGISTIX, BUSINESS HEALTH SOLUTIONS, AND
QUALITY TOOLS & ABRASIVES
INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA

Amended 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 issued a
Certification of Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment
Assistance on January 19, 2017, applicable to workers of Rexnord
Industries, LLC, a subsidiary of Rexnord LLC, Indianapolis,
Indiana, including on-site leased workers from Staffmark, Randstad,
Kelly Services, and Prologistix.
At the request of state workforce office, the Department
reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm. The
workers were engaged in activities related to the production of
bearings.
The company reports that workers leased from Business Health
Solutions and Quality Tools & Abrasives were employed on-site at
Indianapolis, Indiana location of Rexnord Industries, LLC, a
subsidiary of Rexnord LLC, Indianapolis, Indiana. The Department
has determined that these workers were sufficiently under the
control of the subject firm to be considered leased workers.
The intent of the Department’s certification is to include all
workers of the subject firm who were adversely affected by the
firm’s shift in production to a foreign country of bearings.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending this
certification to include workers leased from Business Health
Solutions and Quality Tools & Abrasives working on-site at the
Indiana, Indiana location of Rexnord Industries, LLC, a subsidiary
of Rexnord LLC, Indianapolis, Indiana.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-92,422 is hereby
issued as follows:



"All workers of Rexnord Industries, LLC, a subsidiary of
Rexnord LLC, including on-site leased workers from
Staffmark, Randstad, Kelly Services, Prologistix,
Business Health Solutions, and Quality Tools & Abrasives,
Indianapolis, Indiana, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after November 15, 2015,
through January 19, 2019, 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 2nd day of May, 2017.

INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA

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 November 16, 2016 by the United Steelworkers (USW),
Local 1999 on behalf of workers of Rexnord Industries, LLC, a
subsidiary of Rexnord LLC, including on-site leased workers
from Staffmark, Randstad, Kelly Services, and Prologistix,
Indianapolis, Indiana (herein referred to as "Rexnord
Industries, LLC"). The workers' firm is engaged in activities
related to the production of bearings.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the petitioner and 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 Rexnord Industries, LLC.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Rexnord Industries,
LLC, a subsidiary of Rexnord LLC, including on-site leased
workers from Staffmark, Randstad, Kelly Services, and
Prologistix, Indianapolis, Indiana, who are engaged in
activities related to the production of bearings 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 Rexnord Industries, LLC, a subsidiary of
Rexnord LLC, including on-site leased workers from
Staffmark, Randstad, Kelly Services, and Prologistix,
Indianapolis, Indiana who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after November 15, 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 19th day of January 2017.
