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; and

(2)(A)(i) the sales or production, or both, of such firm have
decreased absolutely; and

(ii)(I) imports of articles or services like or directly
competitive with articles produced or services supplied by
such firm have increased; and

(iii) the increase in imports described in clause (ii)
contributed importantly to such workers' separation or
threat of separation and to the decline in the sales or
production of such firm.
The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on May 11, 2017 by three workers on behalf of workers of
DME Company LLC, Youngwood Division, a subsidiary of Milacron
Corporation, including on-site leased workers from Aerotek
Staffing Services, Youngwood, Pennsylvania ("DME Company
LLC").
The workers' firm is engaged in activities related to the
production of mold bases for the plastics industry.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant
number or proportion of the workers at DME Company LLC have
become totally or partially separated, or are threatened with
such separation.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(i) has been met because the sales
and/or production of mold bases by DME Company LLC have
decreased.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(ii) has been met because imports of
articles like or directly competitive with the article
produced by DME Company LLC have increased.
Finally, Section 222(a)(2)(A)(iii) has been met because
increased imports contributed importantly to the worker group
separations and sales/production declines at the DME Company
LLC.


Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of DME Company LLC,
Youngwood Division, a subsidiary of Milacron Corporation,
including on-site leased workers from Aerotek Staffing
Services, Youngwood, Pennsylvania, who are engaged in
activities related to the production of mold bases, 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 DME Company LLC, Youngwood Division, a
subsidiary of Milacron Corporation, including on-site
leased workers from Aerotek Staffing Services, Youngwood,
Pennsylvania, who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after May 9, 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.
