directly competitive services with those
provided by the workers of the subject
firm.
The petitioner did not supply facts
not previously considered; nor provide
additional documentation indicating
that there was either (1) a mistake in the
determination of facts not previously
considered or (2) a misinterpretation of
facts or of the law justifying
reconsideration of the initial
determination. Based on these findings,
the Department determines that 29 CFR
90.18(c) has not been met.
Conclusion
After careful review of the application
and investigative findings, I conclude
that there has been no error or
misinterpretation of the law or of the
facts which would justify
reconsideration of the Department of
Labor’s prior decision. Accordingly, the
application is denied.
Signed in Washington, DC, this 12th day of
March, 2015.

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
issued a Certification of Eligibility to
Apply for Worker Adjustment
Assistance on March 11, 2013,
applicable to workers of Brayton
International, a subsidiary of Steelcase,
Inc., including on-site leased workers
from The Manpower Group/Experis,
High Point, North Carolina. The
Department’s Notice of Determination
was published in the Federal Register
on March 8, 2013 (Volume 78 FR
15051).
At the request of a company official,
the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject

firm. The workers were engaged in
activities related to the production of
office furniture.
The company reports that workers
leased from Bradley Personnel Inc.,
Graham Personnel Services, Aerotek,
Workforce Unlimited, Experis, and
imPact Business Group were employed
on-site at the High Point, North Carolina
location of Brayton International. The
Department has determined that these
workers were sufficiently under the
control of the subject firm to be
considered leased workers.
Based on these findings, the
Department is amending this
certification to include leased workers
from Bradley Personnel Inc., Graham
Personnel Services, Aerotek, Workforce
Unlimited, Experis, and imPact
Business Group working on-site at the
High Point, North Carolina location of
Brayton International.
The amended notice applicable to
TA–W–82,478 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of Brayton International, a
subsidiary of Steelcase, Inc., including onsite leased workers from Manpower Group,
Experis, Bradley Personnel Inc., Graham
Personnel Services, Aerotek, Workforce
Unlimited, Experis, and imPact Business
Group, High Point, North Carolina, who
became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after February 15, 2012
through March 11, 2015, and all workers in
the group threatened with total or partial
separation from employment on the date of
certification through March 11, 2015, are
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance
under Chapter 2 of Title II of the Trade Act
of 1974, as amended.
Signed in Washington, DC, this 10th day of

Honeywell, Aerospace Division;
Including On-Site Leased Workers
From OptiScan, Tempe, Arizona;
Notice of Affirmative Determination
Regarding Application for
Reconsideration
By application dated January 28,
2015, a worker requested administrative
reconsideration of the negative
determination regarding workers’
eligibility to apply for worker
adjustment assistance applicable to
PO 00000
Frm 00083
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
workers and former workers of
Honeywell, Aerospace Division,
including on-site leased workers from
OptiScan, Tempe, Arizona (Honeywell).
The determination was issued on
December 9, 2014 and the Department
of Labor’s Notice of Determination was
published in the Federal Register on
December 30, 2014 (79 FR 78496).
Pursuant to 29 CFR 90.18(c)
reconsideration may be granted under
the following circumstances:
(1) If it appears on the basis of facts
not previously considered that the
determination complained of was
erroneous;
(2) If it appears that the determination
complained of was based on a mistake
in the determination of facts not
previously considered; or
(3) If in the opinion of the Certifying
Officer, a misinterpretation of facts or of
the law justified reconsideration of the
decision.
The initial investigation resulted in a
negative determination based on the
findings that with respect to Section
222(a) and Section 222(b) of the Act,
Criterion (1) had not been met because
a significant number or proportion of
the workers in such workers’ firm had
not become totally or partially
separated, nor were they threatened to
become totally or partially separated.
The request for reconsideration
asserts that the subject worker group
was defined too broadly and therefore
failed to capture the worker separations
and trade impact experienced by the
specific workers of OptiScan who were
employed on-site at Honeywell,
Aerospace Division, Tempe, Arizona;
that numerous firms which supplied the
subject firm with on-site leased workers
were erroneously combined together for
the purpose of reaching a determination
as a single firm, yet they were not all in
support of the manufacturing process at
the subject firm; that the employment
decline criterion was met for the
OptiScan workers employed on-site at
Honeywell, Aerospace Division, Tempe,
Arizona; and that the data management
services they supplied in support of the
engineering group were shifted to a
foreign country.
The Department has carefully
reviewed the request for reconsideration
and the existing record, and has
determined that the Department will
conduct further investigation to
determine if the workers meet the
eligibility requirements of the Trade Act
of 1974, as amended.
Conclusion
After careful review of the
application, I conclude that the claim is
of sufficient weight to justify
