Amended 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
issued a Certification of Eligibility to Apply for Worker
Adjustment Assistance on January 28, 2013, applicable to workers
of YP Western Directory LLC, Anaheim California Division,
Publishing Operations Group, including workers whose
Unemployment Insurance (UI) wages are paid under YP Western
Holdings LLC and/or YP Advertising LP, YP Subsidiary Holdings
LLC, YP LLC, YP Holdings LLC and including on-site leased
workers from Zero Chaos, Anaheim, California. The workers are
engaged in activities related to the supply of sales operations
and publishing operations functions, and are separately
identifiable from other business units within YP Western
Directory LLC. Therefore, the certification is limited to only
those workers within the Publishing Operations Group who are
located at (or report to) Anaheim, California. The notice was
published in the Federal Register on February 15, 2013 (78 FR
11228).
At the request of a company official, the Department
reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm. New
information from the company shows that some workers separated
from employment at the Anaheim, California location of
YP Western Directory LLC, Anaheim California Division,
Publishing Operations Group had their wages reported through a
separate unemployment insurance (UI) tax account under the name
PBD Holdings.
Accordingly, the Department is amending this certification
to include workers of the subject firm whose unemployment
insurance (UI) wages are reported through PBD Holdings.
The intent of the Department’s certification is to include
all workers of the subject firm who were adversely affected by a
shift in the supply of sales operations and publishing operation
functions to a foreign country.


The amended notice applicable to TA-W-82,250 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of YP Western Directory LLC, Anaheim,
California Division, Publishing Operations Group,
including workers whose Unemployment Insurance (UI)
wages are paid under YP Western Holdings LLC and/or YP
Advertising LP, and PBD Holdings, YP Subsidiary
Holdings LLC, YP LLC, YP Holdings LLC, and including
on-site leased workers from Zero Chaos, Anaheim,
California, who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after December 12, 2011, through
January 28, 2015, 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.”

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 December 13, 2012 by workers of YP Western Directory LLC,
Anaheim, California Division, Publishing Operations Group, Anaheim,
California. The subject worker group includes workers whose wages
are paid under YP Western Holdings LLC and/or YP Advertising LP,
and includes on-site leased workers from Zero Chaos. YP Western
Directory LLC, Anaheim, California, Division, Anaheim,
California is part of YP Subsidiary Holdings LLC, which is part
of YP LLC, which is part of YP Holdings LLC.
Workers of YP Western Directory LLC, Anaheim, California
Division, Publishing Operations Group, Anaheim, California (the
subject worker group) are engaged in employment related to the
supply of services related publishing operations, and are
separately identifiable from other business units within YP Western
Directory LLC. Therefore, the certification is limited to only
those workers within the Publishing Operations Group who are
located at (or report to) Anaheim, California.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant number
or proportion of the workers in YP Western Directory LLC, Anaheim,
California Division, Publishing Operations Group, Anaheim,
California have become totally or partially separated, or are
threatened to become totally or partially separated.
Section 222(a)(2)(B) has been met because YP Western
Directory LLC has acquired from a foreign country the supply of
services that are like or directly competitive with those supplied
by the subject workers, which contributed importantly to worker
group separations at YP Western Directory LLC, Anaheim,
California Division, Publishing Operations Group, Anaheim,
California.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of YP Western Directory
LLC, Anaheim, California Division, Publishing Operations Group,
including on-site leased workers of Zero Chaos, Anaheim,
California, who were engaged in employment related to the supply of
services related to publishing operations, 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 YP Western Directory LLC, Anaheim,
California Division, Publishing Operations Group, including
workers whose wages are paid under YP Western Holdings LLC
and/or YP Advertising LP, and including on-site leased
workers from Zero Chaos, Anaheim, California who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
December 12, 2011, 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.”
