Amended 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 December 15, 2009, applicable to workers of DHL
Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and Accounting
Divisions, Plantation, Florida, (TA-W-70,857); DHL Global
Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and Accounting
Divisions, including on-site leased workers from Manpower,
Randstad, Tempfinders and Volt, Irving, Texas, (TA-W-70,857A);
DHL Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and
Accounting Divisions, Phoenix, Arizona, (TA-W-70,857B); DHL
Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and Accounting
Divisions, including on-site leased workers from Manpower,
Randstad, Tempfinders and Volt, Houston, Texas (TA-W-70,857C);
and DHL Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and
Account Divisions, Renton, Washington (TA-W-70,857D). The notice
was published in the Federal Register on February 16, 2010 (75 FR
7033-7034).
At the request of the State Agency, the Department reviewed
the certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers
supply financial and accounting services.
The company reports that on-site leased workers from
Spherion, Ajilon, Accountemps and Adecco were employed on-site at
only the Houston, Texas and Irving, Texas locations of DHL Global
Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and Accounting
Divisions. The Department has determined that these workers were
sufficiently under the control of the subject firm to be
considered leased workers.
Information also shows that some workers at the above
mentioned locations of the subject firm had their wages reported
under separated unemployment insurance (UI) tax accounts for
Danzas, Radix and Air Express.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending this
certification to include workers leased from Spherion, Ajilon,
Accountemps, and Adecco working on-site at only the Houston,
Texas and Irving, Texas locations of the subject firm and to also
include workers at all of the above mentioned locations whose
wages are report to Danzas, Radix and Air Express.


The amended notice applicable to TA-W-70,857, TA-W-70,857A,
TA-W-70,857B, TA-W-70,857C and TA-W-70,857D are hereby issued as
follows:
"All workers of DHL Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of
DP DHL, Finance and Accounting Divisions, Plantation,
Florida (TA-W-70,857), DHL Global Forwarding, a
subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and Accounting Divisions,
including on-site leased workers from Manpower,
Randstad, Tempfinders, Volt, Spherion, Ajilon
Accountemps and Adecco, Irving, Texas (TA-W-70,857A),
DHL Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance
and Accounting Divisions, Phoenix, Arizona (TA-W-
70,857B), DHL Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP
DHL, Finance and Accounting Divisions, including on-
site leased workers from Manpower, Randstad,

who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after June 1, 2008, through December

of certification through two years from the date of

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(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a), are satisfied if
the following criteria are met:
I. The first criterion (set forth in Section 222(a)(1) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a)(1)) requires that a significant
number or proportion of the workers in the workers’ firm must
have become totally or partially separated or be threatened
with total or partial separation.

II. The second criterion (set forth in Section 222(a)(2) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a)(2)) may be satisfied if either:

(i)(I) there has been a shift by the workers’ firm to a
foreign country in the production of articles or supply
of services like or directly competitive with those
produced/supplied by the workers’ firm; OR
(i)(II) there has been an acquisition from a foreign country
by the workers’ firm of articles/services that are like
or directly competitive with those produced/supplied by
the workers’ firm.

III. The third criterion requires that the shift/acquisition must
have contributed importantly to the workers’ separation or
threat of separation. See Section 222(a)(2)(B)(ii) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a)(2)(B)(ii).

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on June 1, 2009 by a company official on behalf of workers
of DHL Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and
Accounting Divisions, Plantation, Florida (TA-W-70,857), DHL Global
Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and Accounting
Divisions, Irving, Texas (TA-W-70,857A), DHL Global Forwarding, a
subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and Accounting Divisions, Phoenix,
Arizona (TA-W-70,857B), DHL Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP
DHL, Finance and Accounting Divisions, Houston, Texas (TA-W-
70,857C), and DHL Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL,
Finance and Accounting Divisions, Renton, Washington, (TA-W-
70,857D). The workers supply financial and accounting services.
The workers group includes on-site leased workers from
Manpower, Randstand, Tempfinders, and Volt who worked on-site at
the Irving, Texas and Houston, Texas locations.
The investigation revealed that workers of DHL Global
Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and Accounting
Divisions, Plantation, Florida (TA-W-70,857), DHL Global
Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and Accounting
Divisions, Irving, Texas (TA-W-70,857A), DHL Global Forwarding, a
subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and Accounting Divisions, Phoenix,
Arizona (TA-W-70,857B), DHL Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP
DHL, Finance and Accounting Divisions, Houston, Texas (TA-W-
70,857C), and DHL Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL,
Finance and Accounting Divisions, Renton, Washington, (TA-W-
70,857D) who are engaged in employment related to financial and
accounting services meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number of
workers have become separated during the relevant period.
Criterion II has been satisfied because the workers’ firm
has acquired from a foreign country services like or directly
competitive with the services supplied by the workers.
Criterion III has been met because the acquisition of
financial and accounting services from India by DHL Global
Fowarding contributed importantly to worker group separations at
the five locations.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of DHL Global Forwarding, a
subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and Accounting Divisions, Plantation,
Florida (TA-W-70,857), DHL Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP
DHL, Finance and Accounting Divisions, Irving, Texas (TA-W-
70,857A), DHL Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance
and Accounting Divisions, Phoenix, Arizona (TA-W-70,857B), DHL
Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and Accounting
Divisions, Houston, Texas (TA-W-70,857C), and DHL Global
Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and Accounting
Divisions, Renton, Washington, (TA-W-70,857D), who are engaged in
employment related to financial and accounting services meet the
worker group certification criteria under Section 222(a) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a). In accordance with Section 223 of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2273, I make the following certification:

“All workers of DHL Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL,
Finance and Accounting Divisions, Plantation, Florida (TA-W-
70,857), DHL Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL,
Finance and Accounting Divisions, including on-site leased
workers from Manpower, Randstad, Tempfinders, and Volt,
Irving, Texas (TA-W-70,857A), DHL Global Forwarding, a
subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and Accounting Divisions,
Phoenix, Arizona (TA-W-70,857B), DHL Global Forwarding, a
subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and Accounting Divisions,
including on-site leased workers from Manpower, Randstad,
Tempfinders, and Volt, Houston, Texas (TA-W-70,857C), and DHL
Global Forwarding, a subsidiary of DP DHL, Finance and
Accounting Divisions, Renton, Washington, (TA-W-70,857D), who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after June 1, 2008, through two years from the date of
certification, and all workers in the group 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.”
