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 September 20, 2018 by a state workforce office on
behalf of workers of Carter Fuel Systems LLC, a subsidiary of
Trico Group, including on-site leased workers from RGP and
Kelly Services, Logansport, Indiana ("Carter Fuel Systems").
The workers' firm is engaged in activities related to the
production of fuel pumps.
The worker group was certified eligible to apply for
Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) under petition number TA-W-
91,051. The certification expired on April 24, 2018. The
group did not encompass workers from RGP or Kelly 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 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 Carter
Fuel Systems.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Carter Fuel Systems
LLC, a subsidiary of Trico Group, including on-site leased
workers from RGP and Kelly Services, Logansport, Indiana, who
are engaged in activities related to the production of fuel
pumps 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 Carter Fuel Systems LLC, a subsidiary of
Trico Group, Logansport, Indiana, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after April 25,
2018 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;
AND,
All workers of RGP and Kelly Services, working on-site at
Carter Fuel Systems LLC, a subsidiary of Trico Group,
Logansport, Indiana, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after September 18, 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 15th day of November 2018.
