Negative Determination Regarding Eligibility
To Apply For Worker Adjustment Assistance
And Alternative Trade 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 July 13, 2006, in response
to a petition filed on behalf of workers of Computer Sciences
Corporation, Global Transformation Services, employed on-site at
Farmers' Insurance Group, Los Angeles, California (TA-W-59,705) and
Computer Sciences Corporation, Global Transformation Services,
employed on-site at Farmers' Insurance Group, Simi Valley,
California (TA-W-59,705A).
Workers at Computer Sciences Corporation, Global
Transformation Services, employed on-site at Farmers' Insurance
Group, Los Angeles, California (TA-W-59,705) and Computer Sciences
Corporation, Global Transformation Services, employed on-site at
Farmers' Insurance Group, Simi Valley, California (TA-W-59,705A)
are engaged in the maintenance and enhancement of existing Farmers'
Insurance Group software.
The investigation revealed that Computer Sciences Corporation,
Global Transformation Services, employed on-site at Farmers'
Insurance Group, Los Angeles, California (TA-W-59,705) and Computer
Sciences Corporation, Global Transformation Services, employed on-
site at Farmers' Insurance Group, Simi Valley, California (TA-W-
59,705A), 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 investigation
revealed that Farmers' Insurance Group, Los Angeles, California and
Farmers' Insurance Group, Simi Valley, California do not produce an
article. Therefore, workers of Computer Sciences Corporation,
Global Transformation Services, employed on-site at Farmers'
Insurance Group, Los Angeles, California (TA-W-59,705) and Computer
Sciences Corporation, Global Transformation Services, employed on-
site at Farmers' Insurance Group, Simi Valley, California (TA-W-
59,705A) do not support the production of an article.
In addition, in accordance with Section 246 the Trade Act of
1974 (26 USC 2813), as amended, the Department of Labor herein
presents the results of its investigation regarding certification
of eligibility to apply for alternative trade adjustment assistance
(ATAA) for older workers.
In order for the Department to issue a certification of
eligibility to apply for ATAA, the worker group must be certified
eligible to apply for trade adjustment assistance (TAA). Since the
workers are denied eligibility to apply for TAA, the workers cannot
be certified eligible for ATAA.


Conclusion
After careful review, I determine that all workers of Computer
Sciences Corporation, Global Transformation Services, employed on-
site at Farmers' Insurance Group, Los Angeles, California (TA-W-
59,705) and Computer Sciences Corporation, Global Transformation
Services, employed on-site at Farmers' Insurance Group, Simi
Valley, California (TA-W-59,705A) are denied eligibility to apply
for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of
1974, and alternative trade adjustment assistance under Section 246
of the Trade Act of 1974.
Signed in Washington, D.C., this 22nd day of August 2006
