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 April 18, 2013 by a State Workforce Official on behalf of
workers of SunTrust Bank, SunTrust Banks, Inc., Enterprise
Information Services (EIS), including leased workers from MDI
Group, TEKSystems, Insight Global, Veredus, Experis, Pyramid
Consulting, Apex Systems, Beacon Technologies, Randstad, Modis and
Strategic Staffing, Richmond, Virginia. The workers’ firm supplied
financial services.
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 acquired from a foreign country services like or directly
competitive with services supplied by the workers, which
contributed importantly to worker group separations at SunTrust
Bank.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of SunTrust Bank, SunTrust
Banks, Inc., Enterprise Information Services (EIS), Richmond,
Virginia, who are engaged in activities related to the supply of
financial 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 SunTrust Bank, SunTrust Banks, Inc.,
Enterprise Information Services (EIS), including leased
workers from MDI Group, TEKSystems, Insight Global, Veredus,
Experis, Pyramid Consulting, Apex Systems, Beacon
Technologies, Randstad, Modis and Strategic Staffing,
Richmond, Virginia, who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after April 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 8th day of May, 2013.
