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 July 2, 2012 on behalf of workers of Cognizant
Technology Solutions, working on-site at Nike, Inc., 15560 SW
Millikan Way, Building E, Beaverton, Oregon. The worker group
includes leased workers from Natsoft Corporation, Inc. Srinav,
Inc., and Savi Technologies, Inc. working on-site at the afore-
mentioned location. The subject workers are engaged in
activities related to the supply of information technology (IT)
application development and maintenance services.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant number
or proportion of the workers at Cognizant Technology Solutions,
15560 SW Millikan Way, Building E, Beaverton, Oregon, 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 IT development and maintenance
services supplied by the subject workers, which contributed
importantly to worker group separations at 15560 SW Millikan
Way, Building E, Beaverton, Oregon.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Cognizant Technology
Solutions, working on-site at Nike, Inc., 15560 SW Millikan Way,
Building E, Beaverton, Oregon, 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 Cognizant Technology Solutions, including
on-site leased workers from Natsoft Corporation, Inc.,
Srinav, Inc., and Savi Technologies, Inc., working on-site
at Nike, Inc., 15560 SW Millikan Way, Building E,
Beaverton, Oregon, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after June 29, 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 20th day of July, 2012
