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 16, 2018 by a state workforce office on behalf
of workers and former workers of CH2M Hill Engineers, Inc., a
subsidiary of Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc., including workers
whose wages are reported through CH2M Hill, Inc., CH2M Hill
Constructors, Inc., and Operations Management International,
Inc., and including on-site leased workers from IT Network and
HKA Enterprises, Boise, Idaho (hereafter referred to
collectively as "CH2M Hill"). Workers of CH2M Hill are engaged
in activities related to the supply of corporate and general
engineering services.
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 CH2M Hill 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 corporate and general engineering
services supplied by the subject workers which contributed
importantly to worker group separations at CH2M Hill.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of CH2M Hill, who are
engaged in activities related to the supply of corporate and
general engineering 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 CH2M Hill Engineers, Inc., a subsidiary of
Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc., including workers whose
wages are reported through CH2M Hill, Inc., CH2M Hill
Constructors, Inc., and Operations Management
International, Inc., and including on-site leased workers
from IT Network and HKA Enterprises, Boise, Idaho, who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after October 15, 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 16th day of November 2018.
