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 13, 2018 by a company official on behalf of
workers of Ericsson, Inc., Piscataway, New Jersey (Ericsson-
Piscataway). Workers at Ericsson-Piscataway are engaged in
activities related to the supply of research and development
services. The subject worker group including on-site leased
workers from Global Logic, CCM Consulting, and L305,
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant
number or proportion of the workers in Ericsson-Piscataway 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 services
like or directly competitive with the research and development
services supplied by the subject workers which contributed
importantly to worker group separations at Ericsson-
Piscataway.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Ericsson-Piscataway,
who are engaged in activities related to the supply of research
and development services, 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 Ericsson, Inc., including on-site leased
workers from Global Logic, CCM Consulting, and L305,
Piscataway, New Jersey, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after April 11, 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."
