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 June 6, 2017, by a state workforce official on behalf
of the workers of L. Perrigo Company, Procurement Team, 515
Eastern Avenue, a subsidiary of Perrigo Company PLC, including
on-site leased workers from Manpower, Allegan, Michigan (TA-W-
92,932) and L. Perrigo Company, Procurement Team, 1251 Lincoln
Road, a subsidiary of Perrigo Company PLC, including on-site
leased workers from Manpower, Allegan, Michigan (TA-W-
92,932A)("L. Perrigo Company") are the subject of this
investigation. The worker group is inclusive of remote workers.
The workers firm produces pharmaceutical products. The worker
group is engaged in activities related to the supply of
procurement services.
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 L. Perrigo Company 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 a services like or

Company PLC, including on-site leased workers from Manpower,
