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 7, 2017, by three workers on behalf of workers of
Lasermasters, LLC dba LMI Solutions, including workers whose
wages were reported under PHXCO, LLC and GPS Holdings, LLC,
including on-site leased workers from Solutions Staffing,
Phoenix, Arizona (TA-W-92,803) and Lasermasters, LLC dba LMI
Solutions, including workers whose wages were reported under
PHXCO, LLC and GPS Holdings, LLC, including on-site leased
workers from Remedy Intelligent Staffing, McFarland, Wisconsin
(TA-W-92,803A) ("Lasermasters, LLC dba LMI Solutions"). The
workers' firm is engaged in activities related to the
production of remanufactured toner cartridges and
remanufactured laser printers.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm and the petitioners.
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 Lasermasters, LLC dba LMI Solutions.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Lasermasters, LLC dba
LMI Solutions, including workers whose wages were reported
under PHXCO, LLC and GPS Holdings, LLC, including on-site
leased workers from Solutions Staffing, Phoenix, Arizona (TA-
W-92,803) and Lasermasters, LLC dba LMI Solutions, including
workers whose wages were reported under PHXCO, LLC and GPS
Holdings, LLC, including on-site leased workers from Remedy
Intelligent Staffing, McFarland, Wisconsin (TA-W-92,803A), who
are engaged in activities related to the production of
production of remanufactured toner cartridges and
remanufactured laser printers, 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 Lasermasters, LLC dba LMI Solutions,
including workers whose wages were reported under PHXCO,
LLC and GPS Holdings, LLC, including on-site leased
workers from Solutions Staffing, Phoenix, Arizona (TA-W-
92,803) and Lasermasters, LLC dba LMI Solutions,
including workers whose wages were reported under PHXCO,
LLC and GPS Holdings, LLC, including on-site leased
workers from Remedy Intelligent Staffing, McFarland,
Wisconsin (TA-W-92,803A), who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after April 5, 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 22nd day of June 2017.
