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 January 9, 2018 by a state workforce office on behalf
of workers of GE Power (formerly Alstom Power), a subsidiary of
General Electric, including on-site leased workers from Action
Technology Inc., Aerotek, Fountain Group (The), Infotree
Service, Inc., Kelly Services Inc., Kelly Services PPO, Kforce,
New York Technology Partners Inc., Resource Pointe Skilled
Services, Sunrise Systems, Inc., and Synectics Inc., Windsor,
Connecticut (GE Power).
The workers the subject of the investigation is engaged in
activities related to the supply of engineering services, local
administrative services, project management & scheduling, sales &
tendering, digital technology, human resources, communications,
finance, and sourcing.
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 supply of a service
like or directly competitive with the service supplied by the
workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at GE Power.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of GE Power (formerly
Alstom Power), a subsidiary of General Electric, including on-
site leased workers from Action Technology Inc., Aerotek,
Fountain Group (The), Infotree Service, Inc., Kelly Services
Inc., Kelly Services PPO, Kforce, New York Technology Partners
Inc., Resource Pointe Skilled Services, Sunrise Systems, Inc.,
and Synectics Inc., Windsor, Connecticut, who are engaged in
activities related to the supply of engineering services, local
administrative services, project management & scheduling, sales
& tendering, digital technology, human resources,
communications, finance, and sourcing 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 GE Power (formerly Alstom Power), a
subsidiary of General Electric, including on-site leased
workers from Action Technology Inc., Aerotek, Fountain
Group (The), Infotree Service, Inc., Kelly Services Inc.,
Kelly Services PPO, Kforce, New York Technology Partners
Inc., Resource Pointe Skilled Services, Sunrise Systems,
Inc., and Synectics Inc., Windsor, Connecticut, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
January 8, 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 22nd day of February 2018.
