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 July 8, 2009 on behalf of workers of The Bank of New York
Mellon, Corporate Trust Operations Division, also known as Global
Corporate Trust Billing, Syracuse, New York. Workers are engaged
in customized trust services, such as debt finance transactions.
The worker group includes on-site leased workers from Aerotek,
Inc., AETEA Information Technology, Inc., Ajilon Consulting,
American Cybersystems, Inc., and Comforce Staffing Services.
The investigation revealed that workers of The Bank of New
York Mellon, Corporate Trust Operations Division, Syracuse, New
York, who are engaged in activities related to customized trust
services meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number of
workers have been separated or threatened with separation during
the relevant period.
Criterion II has been satisfied because there has been a
shift in customized trust services by The Bank of New York Mellon
to India.
Criterion III has been met because the shift in services
contributed importantly to worker group separations at The Bank
of New York Mellon, Corporate Trust Operations Division,
Syracuse, New York.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of The Bank of New York
Mellon, Corporate Trust Operations Division, Syracuse, New York
who are engaged in employment related to customized trust
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 The Bank of New York Mellon, Corporate Trust
Operations Division, including on-site leased workers from
Aerotek, Inc., AETEA Information Technology, Inc., Ajilon
Consulting, American Cybersystems, Inc., and Comforce Staffing
Services, Syracuse, New York, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after July 7, 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.”
