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 June 23, 2020 by a state workforce office on behalf of
workers of PCC Structurals, Inc., a subsidiary of Precision
Castparts Corp., Clackamas, Oregon (PCC Structurals-Clackmas).
The workers' firm is engaged in activities related to the
production of complex investment castings for aerospace, land-
based turbine, military armament and other applications. The
subject worker group includes on-site leased workers from
Aerotek Staffing and Recruiting, Applied Technical Services,
Inc., and PQNDT.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the petition and the workers' firm.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant
number or proportion of the workers in PCC Structurals-Clackmas
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 a portion of the
production of an article like or directly competitive with the
complex investment castings produced by the subject workers
which contributed importantly to worker group separations at
PCC Structurals-Clackmas.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of investment castings,
who are engaged in activities related to the production of
complex investment castings, 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 PCC Structurals, Inc., a subsidiary of
Precision Castparts Corp., including on-site leased
workers from Aerotek Staffing and Recruiting, Applied
Technical Services, Inc., and PQNDT, Clackamas, Oregon,
who became totally or partially separated from employment
on or after June 22, 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 27th day of November 2020.
