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 August 10, 2012 by a company official on behalf of
workers of New CIDC Delaware Corporation, a wholly owned
subsidiary of Betclic Everest Group, Cambridge, Massachusetts
(CIDC). The workers' firm is engaged in activities related to
the supply of software development, data architecture and
limited marketing services. The workers are not separately
identifiable. The subject worker group includes on-site
leased workers from Qualitest and SQA. The subject worker
group also includes off-site workers working from their homes
in California and an off-site independent contractor
Christopher Clark from Massachusetts.
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 services supplied by the
workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at CIDC.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of New CIDC Delaware
Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Betclic Everest
Group, including off-site workers working from California and
an off-site independent contractor Christopher Clark from
Massachusetts, including on-site leased workers from Qualitest
and SQA, Cambridge, Massachusetts who are engaged in
activities related to the supply of software development, data
architecture and limited marketing 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 New CIDC Delaware Corporation, a wholly
owned subsidiary of Betclic Everest Group, including off-
site workers working from California and an off-site
independent contractor Christopher Clark from
Massachusetts, including on-site leased workers from
Qualitest and SQA, Cambridge, Massachusetts, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or
after August 6, 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 12th day of September, 2012.
