DRESSER-RAND COMPANY
INCLUDING ON-SITE LEASED WORKERS FROM
DTZ CONTRACT SERVICES, G4S, DXP AND MERGEIT LLC
OLEAN, NEW YORK

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 November 30, 2017, applicable to
workers of Dresser-Rand Company, Olean, New York, including on-
site leased workers from DTZ Contract Services, G4S, and DXP.
The Department’s notice of determination will soon be published
in the Federal Register.
At the request of the American Job Center, the Department
reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm. The
company reports that workers leased from MergeIT LLC were
employed on-site at the Olean, New York location of Dresser-Rand
Company. The Department has determined that these workers were
sufficiently under the control of the subject firm to be
considered leased workers.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending this
certification to include workers leased from MergeIT LLC working
on-site at the Olean, New York location of Dresser-Rand Company.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-92,796 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of Dresser-Rand Company, including on-
site leased workers from DTZ Contract Services, G4S,
DXP and MergeIT LLC, Olean, New York, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or
after June 5, 2017, through November 30, 2019, and all
workers in the group threatened with total or partial
separation from employment on the date of November 30,
2017 through November 30, 2019, 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 15th day of March, 2018

DRESSER-RAND COMPANY
INCLUDING ON-SITE LEASED WORKERS FROM
DTZ CONTRACT SERVICES, G4S, AND DXP
OLEAN, NEW YORK

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 April 6, 2017 by a one-stop operator/partner on behalf
of workers of Dresser-Rand Company, Olean, New York (Dresser-
Rand). The workers' firm is engaged in activities related to
the production of turbo compressors, turbo parts, and revamps
for steam turbines. Workers are not separately identifiable by
the article produced. The worker group includes on-site leased
workers from DTZ Contract Services, G4S, and DXP.
Workers at the subject firm are eligible to apply for Trade
Adjustment Assistance under TA-W-92,796A (certification expired
on June 4, 2017).
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 Dresser-Rand 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 a portion of the
production of a(n) article like or directly competitive with the
article(s) produced by the workers which contributed importantly
to worker group separations at Dresser-Rand.

Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Dresser-Rand, who are
engaged in activities related to the production of turbo
compressors, turbo parts and revamps, 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 Dresser-Rand Company, including on-site
leased workers from DTZ Contract Services, G4S, and DXP,
Olean, New York, who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after June 5, 2017 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 30th day of November 2017.
