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 May 14, 2010 by a State of Texas Workforce Specialist
on behalf of workers of Unisys Corporation, Managed Service
Center, Austin, Texas (the Managed Service Center). The workers
supply technical support services. The worker group includes
on-site leased workers from Apex Systems and Pinnacle.
The investigation revealed that workers of the Managed
Service Center, who are engaged in employment related to the
supply of technical support services, meet the criteria for
certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant proportion
or number of the workers at the Managed Service Center has
been totally or partially separated, or are threatened with
such separation.
Criterion II has been met because the worker's firm has
shifted the supply of technical support to a foreign country.
Criterion III has been met because the shift to India
contributed importantly to worker group separations at the
Managed Service Center.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Unisys Corporation,
Managed Service Center, Austin, Texas, who are engaged in
employment related to the supply of technical support 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 Unisys Corporation, Managed Service Center,
including on-site leased workers from Apex Systems and
Pinnacle, Austin, Texas, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after May 13, 2009, 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 2nd day of September, 2010
