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. (Set forth in 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 10, 2009 on behalf of workers of ACS Enterprise
Solutions, Inc., Syracuse Office, a subsidiary of Affiliated
Computer Services, Inc., East Syracuse, New York (ACS
Enterprise Solutions, Inc.). The workers are engaged in
activities related to software and hardware networking
services. The workers are not separately identifiable by
services.
The investigation revealed that workers of ACS Enterprise
Solutions, Inc., Syracuse Office, a subsidiary of Affiliated
Computer Services, Inc., East Syracuse, New York who are
engaged in activities related to software and hardware
networking services meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number or
proportion of the workers in the workers' firm have become
totally or partially separated.
Criterion II has been satisfied because there has been a
shift in software and hardware networking services by ACS
Enterprise Solutions, Inc. to India.
Criterion III has been met because the shift in software
and hardware networking services by ACS Enterprise Solutions,
Inc. to India contributed importantly to worker group
separations at ACS Enterprise Solutions, Inc.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of ACS Enterprise
Solutions, Inc., Syracuse Office, a subsidiary of Affiliated
Computer Services, Inc., East Syracuse, New York, who are
engaged in activities related to software and hardware
networking 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 ACS Enterprise Solutions, Inc., Syracuse
Office, a subsidiary of Affiliated Computer Services,
Inc., East Syracuse, New York, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after May 21,
2008, through two years from the date of certification, and
all workers in the group threatened with total or partial
separation from employment on 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."
Signed in Washington, D.C., this 15th day of October, 2009
