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 December 12, 2018 by the United Autoworkers (UAW),
Local 1930, on behalf of workers of Faurecia Emissions Control
Technologies USA, LLC, Clean Mobility Division, Dexter,
Missouri (Faurecia-Dexter). Workers at Faurecia-Dexter are
engaged in activities related to the production of exhaust
systems. While the workers are separately identifiable by
collective bargaining agreement, the workers at Faurecia-Dexter
are not separately identifiable by article produced.
Consequently, the subject worker group includes workers not
covered by the UAW contract and on-site leased workers of
Express Employment Professionals and Manpower.
The petition (dated November 15, 2018) states "Our Harley
Davidson department is being shifted to Mexico."
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 Faurecia-Dexter 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 production of articles
like or directly competitive with the exhaust systems produced
by the subject workers which contributed importantly to worker
group separations, or threats of separation, at Faurecia-
Dexter.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Faurecia-Dexter, who
are engaged in activities related to the production of exhaust
systems, 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 Faurecia Emissions Control Technologies
USA, LLC, Clean Mobility Division, including on-site
leased workers of Express Employment Professionals and
Manpower, Dexter, Missouri, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after November 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 13th day of September 2019.
