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 are
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 August 3, 2009 on behalf of workers of Marsh USA, Inc.,
NA Controllership Division, a subsidiary of Marsh & McLennon
Companies, Inc, Chicago, Illinois. The workers supplied
accounts receivable services.
The investigation revealed that workers of Marsh USA, Inc.,
NA Controllership Division, who are engaged in employment
related to accounts receivable services, meet the criteria for
certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant proportion
of the workers have become separated during the relevant period.
Criterion II has been satisfied because there has been a
shift by the workers' firm to a foreign country in the
acquisition of services like or directly competitive with the
services supplied by the workers.
Criterion III has been met because the shift of
accounting services to India by Marsh USA, Inc. contributed
importantly to worker group separations at the Chicago,
Illinois location.


Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Marsh USA, Inc., NA
Controllership Division, a subsidiary of Marsh & McLennon
Companies, Inc., Chicago, Illinois, who are engaged in
employment related to accounts receivable 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 Marsh USA, Inc., NA Controllership
Division, a subsidiary of Marsh & McLennon Companies, Inc.,
Chicago, Illinois, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after July 30, 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."
Signed in Washington, D.C., this 28th day of October, 2009
