DAYTON, TENNESSEE


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 January 3, 2020 by a company official on behalf of
workers and former workers of International Automotive
Components (IAC), Dayton, Tennessee (IAC-Dayton). Workers of
IAC-Dayton are engaged in activities related to the production
of interior parts and component parts for automobiles
(automotive component parts). The worker group includes on-
site leased workers from Noonan Group, Inc.
During the course of the investigation, the Department
obtained information from the petition and the workers' firm.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant
number or proportion of the workers at IAC-Dayton have become
totally or partially separated, or threatened with such
separation.
Section 222(a)(2)(B) has been met because the workers'
firm has acquired from a foreign country the production of
articles like or directly competitive with the automotive
component parts produced by the subject workers which
contributed importantly to worker group separations at IAC-
Dayton.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of IAC-Dayton, who are
engaged in activities related to the production of automotive
component parts, 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 International Automotive Components (IAC),
including on-site leased workers from Noonan Group, Inc.,
Dayton, Tennessee, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after January 2, 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."
Signed in Washington, D.C. this 6th day of March 2020.
