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 July 15, 2020 by the United Automobile, Aerospace and
Agricultural Implement Workers of America (UAW), Local 952, on
behalf of workers and former workers of Spirit Aerosystems Inc.,
Tulsa, Oklahoma (TA-W-96,056) and Spirit Aerosystems Inc.,
McAlester, Oklahoma (TA-W-96,056A)(hereafter collectively
referred to as "Spirit Aerosystems-Oklahoma"). The workers'
firm is engaged in activities related to the production of
aerospace and aircraft structures. The subject worker groups
include on-site leased workers from APC Workforce Solutions LLC
d/b/a Workforce Logiq (formerly known as ZeroChaos), Acro
Service Corporation, Aerotek, Aircraft Technology Group, Axius
Group, Donatech Corporation, Hi-Tek Professionals, iCONMA,
Indotronix International Corporation, LanceSoft Inc., Launch
Technical, LSI Staffing, Mentis, PDS Technical, Strom
Aviation, Systemart, The Arnold Group, US Professional, Yoh
Aerospace & Defense, CTS International, Compunnel Software
Group Inc., Johnson Service, and United Global Technologies.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the petition and the workers' firm.
Section 222(b)(1) has been met because a significant
number or proportion of the workers in Spirit Aerosystems-
Oklahoma have become totally or partially separated, or are
threatened to become totally or partially separated.
Section 222(b)(2) has been met because Spirit
Aerosystems-Oklahoma 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 article that was the basis for such
certification.
Section 222(b)(3)(B) has been met because the loss of
business by Spirit Aerosystems-Oklahoma with a firm that
employed a certified worker group contributed importantly to
worker separations at Spirit Aerosystems-Oklahoma.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Spirit Aerosystems-
Oklahoma, who are engaged in activities related to the
production of aerospace and aircraft structures, 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 Spirit Aerosystems Inc., including on-site
leased workers from APC Workforce Solutions LLC d/b/a
Workforce Logiq (formerly known as ZeroChaos), Acro
Service Corporation, Aerotek, Aircraft Technology Group,
Axius Group, Donatech Corporation, Hi-Tek Professionals,

Oklahoma (TA-W-96,056A), who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after July 13, 2019 through
two years from the date of certification, and all workers
in the groups 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."
