The Department’s notice of 

determination was published in the 

Federal Register on May 30, 2013 (78 

FR 32464). 

At the request of the State Workforce 

Office, the Department reviewed the 

certification for workers of the subject 

firm. The workers were engaged in 

production of refrigerators and trash 

compactors as well as decommissioning 

work for the facility closure. 

The Department confirmed that 

workers leased from Jones Lang LaSalle 

and Otterbase, Inc. were employed onsite at the Fort Smith, Arkansas location 

of Whirlpool Corporation. 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 workers leased 

from Otterbase, Inc. working on-site at 

the Fort Smith, Arkansas location of 

Whirlpool Corporation.

Plexus Corporation; Neenah 

Operations; Including On-Site Leased 

Workers From Kelly Services, Inc., 

Aerotek and Gold Star Solutions, Inc. 

Neenah, Wisconsin; Notice of 

Continuation of Certification 

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 April 5, 2013, applicable 

to workers of Plexus Corporation, 

Neenah Operations, Neenah, Wisconsin. 

The Department’s Notice of 

Determination was published in the 

Federal Register on April 30, 2013 (78 

FR 25306). 

The Department of Labor issued an 

Amended Certification Regarding to 

Apply for Worker Adjustment 

Assistance on January 29, 2014 to 

include leased workers from Kelly 

Services, Inc., Aerotek and Gold Star 

Solutions, Inc. working on-site at Plexus 

Corporation, Neenah Operations, 

Neenah, Wisconsin. The Department’s 

Notice of Amended Determination was 

published in the Federal Register on 

February 12, 2014 (79 FR 8505). 

On August 8, 2014, the Department 

issued a Notice of Initiation of 

Investigation to Terminate Certification 

applicable to workers and former 

workers of Plexus Corporation, Neenah 

Operations, Neenah, Wisconsin. The 

Department’s Notice of Initiation of 

Investigation to Terminate Certification 

was published in the Federal Register 

on August 22, 2014 (79 FR 49814). 

The Department’s original 

investigation revealed that Section 

222(a)(1) had been met because a 

significant number or proportion of the 

workers in such workers’ firm had 

become totally or partially separated, or 

were threatened to become totally or 

partially separated. 

Section 222(a)(2)(B) had been met 

because the workers’ firm had shifted to 

a foreign country the production of 

articles like or directly competitive with 

the articles produced by the subject firm 

which contributed importantly to 

worker group separations at Plexus 

Corporation, Neenah Operations, 

Neenah, Wisconsin. 

The Department has completed its 

review of the certification for workers of 

the subject firm pursuant to 29 CFR 

90.17(a). The investigation included 

data collected from the subject firm, a 

major customer of the subject firm, and 

the original petitioner. 

The subject firm continues to be 

engaged in activities related to the 

production of printed circuit board 

assemblies. 

The Department’s review revealed 

that the shift in production to a foreign 

country that was the original basis for 

the certification has completed and that 

the subject firm is no longer shifting 

production of like or directly 

competitive articles to a foreign country. 

The Department’s review further 

revealed that the group eligibility 

criteria specified in Section 222 of the 

Trade Act of 1974, as amended by the 

Trade Adjustment Assistance Extension 

Act of 2011, continue to be met. 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; and 

(2)(A)(i) the sales or production, or both, of 

such firm have decreased absolutely; and 

(ii)(I) imports of articles or services like or 

directly competitive with articles produced 

or services supplied by such firm have 

increased; and 

(iii) the increase in imports described in 

clause (ii) contributed importantly to such 

workers’ separation or threat of separation 

and to the decline in the sales or production 

of such firm. 

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)(A)(i) has been met 

because the sales and production of 

printed circuit board assemblies by 

Plexus Corporation have decreased 

absolutely. 

Section 222(a)(2)(A)(ii) has been met 

because customer imports of articles 

like or directly competitive with the 

printed circuit board assemblies 

produced by Plexus Corporation have 

increased. 

Finally, Section 222(a)(2)(A)(iii) has 

been met because the increased 

customer imports contributed 

importantly to the worker group 

separations and sales/production 

declines at Plexus Corporation. 

Conclusion 

After careful review of the facts, I 

affirm the certification of workers and 

former workers of Plexus Corporation, 

Neenah Operations, including on-site 

leased workers from Kelly Services, Inc., 

Aerotek, and Gold Star Solutions, Inc., 

Neenah, Wisconsin.
