CHICAGO, ILLINOIS
Negative Determination Regarding Eligibility
To Apply For Worker Adjustment Assistance
In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended (19 USC 2273), the Department of Labor herein presents the
results of an investigation regarding certification of eligibility
to apply for worker adjustment assistance.
The investigation was initiated on March 29, 2004 in response
to a petition filed on behalf of workers of CCC Information
Services, Inc., a subsidiary of CC Information Services Group,
Inc., Chicago, Illinois. The workers performed technical support
services for shop-management software applications. These services
included answering customer questions, training customers in the
use of the applications and installing the software applications.
The investigation revealed that CCC Information Services,
Inc., a subsidiary of CC Information Services Group, Inc., Chicago,
Illinois does not produce an article within the meaning of Section
222(a)(2) of the Act. In order to be considered eligible to apply
for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of
1974, the worker group seeking certification (or on whose behalf
certification is being sought) must work for a "firm" or
appropriate subdivision that produces an article and there must be
a relationship between the workers' work and the article produced
by the workers' firm or appropriate subdivision. The petitioning
worker group seeking certification does not support a firm or
appropriate subdivision that produces an article and thus the
worker group can not be considered import impacted or affected by a
shift in production of an article.
Conclusion
After careful review, I determine that all workers of CCC
Information Services, Inc., a subsidiary of CC Information Services
Group, Inc., Chicago, Illinois are denied eligibility to apply for
adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.
Signed in Washington, D. C. this 18th day of May 2004.
