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 November 18, 2009 on behalf of workers of Universal
Warranty Corporation, a subsidiary of GMAC Inc., Omaha,
Nebraska. The workers supply automotive service contract
services to franchise and independent automotive dealers.
The worker group includes on-site leased workers from The
Guru Alliance LLC, ATS Services, MATRIX Resources, Inc., Planet
Consulting, Stockell Consulting, TEK Systems, Inc., and Client
Resources.
The investigation revealed that workers Universal Warranty
Corporation who are engaged in employment related to
automotive service contracts meet the criteria for
certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant proportion
of the workers were separated or threatened to become
separated during the relevant period.
Criterion II has been satisfied because the workers' firm
has shifted to a foreign country services like or directly
competitive with the services supplied by the workers.
Criterion III has been met because the shift of services
to Mexico by Universal Warranty Corporation contributed
importantly to worker group separations at the Omaha, Nebraska
facility.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Universal Warranty
Corporation, a subsidiary of GMAC Inc., Omaha, Nebraska who are
engaged in employment related to automotive service contracts
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 Universal Warranty Corporation, a
subsidiary of GMAC, Inc., including on-site leased
workers from The Guru Alliance LLC, ATS Services, Client
Resources, MATRIX Resources, Inc., Planet Consulting,
Stockell Consulting, and TEK Systems, Inc., Omaha,
Nebraska, who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after November 11, 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."
