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 March 12, 2013 on behalf of workers of Siemens Medical
Solutions USA, Inc., Health Services Global Services/Supply
Chain Management, Malvern, Pennsylvania. The worker group is
engaged in activities related to the supply of IT solutions
services for their firm.
Workers of Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc., Health
Services Global Services/Supply Chain Management, Malvern,
Pennsylvania were covered under certification number TA-W-
73,158A that expired on March 11, 2012.
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 IT solutions
services like or directly competitive with the services supplied
by the workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc., Health
Services Global Services/Supply Chain Management, Malvern,
Pennsylvania.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Siemens Medical
Solutions USA, Inc., Health Services Global Services/Supply
Chain Management, Malvern, Pennsylvania, who are engaged in
activities related to the supply of IT solutions 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 Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc.,
Health Services Global Services/Supply Chain Management,
Malvern, Pennsylvania, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after March 12, 2012,
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 14th day of May, 2013.
