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 May 23, 2019 by a one-stop operator/partner on behalf
of workers and former workers of Eagle Test Systems Inc., a
Teradyne Company, a subsidiary of Teradyne, Inc., Buffalo
Grove, Illinois (Eagle Test Systems). The workers' firm is
engaged in activities related to the production of semiconductor
test systems. The subject worker group includes on-site leased
workers from Artech.
During the course of the investigation, the Department
collected information from the workers' firm and the petition.
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 shifted to a foreign country the production of an
article like or directly competitive with the test systems
produced by the subject workers which contributed importantly to
worker group separations at Eagle Test Systems.



Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Eagle Test Systems,
who are engaged in activities related to the production of
semiconductor test 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 Eagle Test Systems Inc., a Teradyne
Company, a subsidiary of Teradyne, Inc., including on-site
leased workers from Artech, Buffalo Grove, Illinois, who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after May 22, 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 21st day of June 2019.
