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 February 27, 2018 by the state workforce office on
behalf of workers of Danfoss LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of
Danfoss A/S, including on-site leased workers from Staff
Management and Express Pros, Mountainside, New Jersey (herein
referred to as "Danfoss LLC"). The workers' firm is engaged in
activities related to the supply of engineering solutions
services. The subject worker group is engaged in activities
related to the production of burner components, nozzles and
accessories to be used in oil burners, pest control systems and
various water spraying systems.
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 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 acquired from a foreign country articles like or
directly competitive with articles produced by the workers which
contributed importantly to worker group separations at Danfoss
LLC.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Danfoss LLC, a wholly
owned subsidiary of Danfoss A/S, including on-site leased
workers from Staff Management and Express Pros, Mountainside,
New Jersey who are engaged in activities related to the
production of burner components, nozzles and accessories 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 Danfoss LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of
Danfoss A/S, including on-site leased workers from Staff
Management and Express Pros, Mountainside, New Jersey who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after February 26, 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 29th day of March 2018.
