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:
(1) a significant number or proportion of the
workers in such workers' firm have become totally or
partially separated, or are threatened to become
totally or partially separated;
(2)(B)(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
(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; AND
(ii) the shift/acquisition must have
contributed importantly to the workers'
separation or threat of separation.

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on June 6, 2012 on behalf of workers of Brookfield
Global Relocation Services, Client Accounting Division,
including on-site leased workers from Accountemps and Quad,
Fort Washington, Pennsylvania. The worker group is engaged in
activities related to the supply of general accounting
services.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant
number or proportion of the workers in such workers' firm have
become totally or partially separated, or are threatened to
become totally or partially separated.
Section 222(a)(2)(B) has been met because the workers'
firm has shifted to a foreign country the supply of services
like or directly competitive with the general accounting
services supplied by the workers which contributed importantly
to worker group separations at Brookfield Global Relocation
Services.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Brookfield Global
Relocation Services, Client Accounting Division, including on-
site leased workers from Accountemps and Quad, Fort
Washington, Pennsylvania, who are engaged in activities
related to the supply of general accounting 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 Brookfield Global Relocation Services,
Client Accounting Division, including on-site leased
workers from Accountemps and Quad, Fort Washington,
Pennsylvania, who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after June 5, 2011, 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 13th day of July, 2012
