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 October 3, 2018 by a company official on behalf of
workers of The Boeing Company El Paso Operations, a subsidiary
of The Boeing Company, Boeing Defense Space & Security
Division, including on-site leased workers from Moseley
Technical Services, El Paso, Texas (herein referred to as
"Boeing"). The workers' firm is engaged in activities related to
the production of panel assemblies and defense electronics.
Workers from the subject firm are not separately identifiable by
articles produced.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm and the petitioner.
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 Boeing.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of The Boeing Company El
Paso Operations, a subsidiary of The Boeing Company, Boeing
Defense Space & Security Division, including on-site leased
workers from Moseley Technical Services, El Paso, Texas, who
are engaged in activities related to the production of panel
assemblies and defense electronics 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 The Boeing Company El Paso Operations, a
subsidiary of The Boeing Company, Boeing Defense Space &
Security Division, including on-site leased workers from
Moseley Technical Services, El Paso, Texas, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
October 2, 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 23rd day of October 2018.
