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 27, 2009, by the Minnesota Department of
Labor and Industry, on behalf of workers of Roadway Express,
Inc., Regional Acquired Shipment Detail, a subsidiary of YRC
Worldwide, Inc., Eagan, Minnesota (Roadway Express). The
workers supply billing services for the trucking industry.
The investigation revealed that workers of Roadway Express,
who are engaged in employment related to the supply of billing
services, meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number or
proportion of the workers at Roadway Express have become
totally or partially separated during the relevant period.
Criterion II has been met because Roadway Express is
acquiring billing services from unaffiliated providers in India
and The Philippines.
Criterion III has been met because the foreign
acquisition of billing services by Roadway Express contributed
importantly to worker group separations at the Eagan,
Minnesota facility.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Roadway Express,
Inc., Regional Acquired Shipment Detail, a subsidiary of YRC
Worldwide, Inc., Eagan, Minnesota, who are engaged in activities
related to the supply of billing 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 Roadway Express, Inc., Regional Acquired
Shipment Detail, a subsidiary of YRC Worldwide, Inc.,
Eagan, Minnesota, who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after November 25, 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 19th day of March, 2010
