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 January 9, 2017 by the United Auto Workers (UAW),
Local 22 on behalf of workers of GM Detroit Hamtramck Assembly
and GMSM (General Motors Subsystems Manufacturing) LLC, a
wholly owned subsidiary of General Motors, Detroit, Michigan
(herein known as "GM Detroit Hamtramck" or "workers' firm").
The subject worker group also includes on-site from Development
Dimensions International and Aramark. The workers' firm is
engaged in activities related to the production of automobiles -
sedans; specifically, the Cadillac CT6, Chevrolet Volt PEV,
Chevrolet Impala, Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac ELR PEV, and
Chevrolet Malibu.
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 GM Detroit Hamtramck.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of GM Detroit Hamtramck
Assembly and GMSM LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of General
Motors, including on-site leased workers from Development
Dimensions International and Aramark, Detroit, Michigan, who
are engaged in activities related to the production of
automobiles - sedans; specifically, the Cadillac CT6,
Chevrolet Volt PEV, Chevrolet Impala, Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac
ELR PEV, and Chevrolet Malibu 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 GM Detroit Hamtramck Assembly and GMSM
LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of General Motors,
including on-site leased workers from Development
Dimensions International and Aramark, Detroit, Michigan,
who became totally or partially separated from employment
on or after January 6, 2016 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 2nd day of March 2017.
