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(b) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(b), can be
satisfied if the following criteria are met:
(1) a significant number or proportion of the workers in
the workers' firm or an appropriate subdivision of the firm
have become totally or partially separated, or are
threatened to become totally or partially separated;

(2) the workers' firm is a Supplier or Downstream Producer
to a firm that employed a group of workers who received a
certification of eligibility under Section 222(a) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a), and such supply or production is
related to the article or service that was the basis for
such certification; and

(3) either
(A) the workers' firm is a supplier and the component
parts it supplied to the firm described in paragraph
(2) accounted for at least 20 percent of the
production or sales of the workers' firm;
or
(B) a loss of business by the workers' firm with the
firm described in paragraph (2) contributed
importantly to the workers' separation or threat of
separation.

Section 222(c) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(c), defines the
term "Supplier" as "a firm that produces and supplies directly
to another firm component parts for articles, or services used
in the production of articles or in the supply of services, as
the case may be, that were the basis for a certification of
eligibility under subsection (a) [of Section 222 of the Act] of
a group of workers employed by such other firm."
The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on February 13, 2019 by the United Steel Workers (USW),
Local 0621 on behalf of workers of Source Providers, Inc., a
subsidiary of Comprehensive Logistics, Inc., Austintown, Ohio
(herein referred to as "Source Providers, Inc."). The subject
worker group includes on-site leased workers from Office Team
and Callos Temporary Service. The workers' firm is engaged in
activities related to the production of automotive parts,
specifically, subassembly of Tier 1 Original Equipment
Manufactured (OEM) parts.
The subject worker group was previously certified
eligible to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance under
petition number TA-W-92,538 that expired on March 9, 2019.
The certification only included on-site leased workers from
Callos Temporary Service.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm and the petitioner.
Section 222(b)(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(b)(2) has been met because Source Providers,
Inc. is a Supplier to a firm that employed a group of workers
who received a certification of eligibility under Section 222(a)
of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a), and such supply is related to
the finished article that was the basis for such certification.
Section 222(b)(3)(A) has been met because the subassembly
work supplied by Source Providers, Inc. for a firm that
employed a certified worker group accounted for at least 20
percent of the production or sales of Source Providers, Inc.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Source Providers,
Inc., a subsidiary of Comprehensive Logistics, Inc., including
on-site leased workers from Office Team and Callos Temporary
Service, Austintown, Ohio, who are engaged in activities related
to the production of tier 1 automotive parts, specifically
subassembly activities, meet the worker group certification
criteria under Section 222(b) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(b).
In accordance with Section 223 of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2273, I
make the following certification:
"All workers of Source Providers, Inc., a subsidiary of
Comprehensive Logistics, Inc., including on-site leased
workers from Callos Temporary Service, Austintown, Ohio,
who became totally or partially separated from employment
on or after March 10, 2019 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 Office Team, working on-site at Source
Providers, Inc., a subsidiary of Comprehensive Logistics,
Inc., Austintown, Ohio, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after February 12, 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."
Signed in Washington, D.C. this 13th day of May 2019.
