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 March 28, 2017 by a state workforce office on behalf of
the workers of Honeywell International, Inc., S&PS Advanced
Technology Center of Excellence, Golden Valley, Minnesota (TA-W-
92,765) and Honeywell International, Inc., S&PS Advanced
Technology Center of Excellence, Plymouth, Minnesota (TA-W-
92,765A) (hereafter referred to collectively as "Honeywell-
S&PS"). Workers of Honeywell-S&PS are engaged in activities
related to the supply of research and development services. The
subject worker group (Honeywell-S&PS) does not include on-site
leased workers.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the petitioners and workers' firm.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant number
or proportion of the workers in Honeywell-S&PS 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 research and development services
supplied by the subject workers which contributed importantly to
worker group separations at Honeywell-S&PS.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Honeywell-S&PS, who are
engaged in activities related to the supply of research and
development 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 Honeywell International, Inc., S&PS Advanced
Technology Center of Excellence, Golden Valley, Minnesota
(TA-W-92,765) and Honeywell International, Inc., S&PS
Advanced Technology Center of Excellence, Plymouth, Minnesota
(TA-W-92,765A), who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after March 27, 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 9th day of May 2017.
