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 by a State Workforce Official on December 30, 2013 on
behalf of workers of Citibank, N.A., a subsidiary of Citigroup,
Inc., Global Consumer Retail Banking Technology-Enterprise
Applications, Rainbow USA Applications Integration And
Deployment & Transaction Processing Divisions, including on-
site leased workers from Accenture, Apex Systems Incorporated,
Axelon, Compucom, Hiregenics, Inc., Infosys Technologies
Limited US, Mitchell Martin, Inc., Norgate Technology, Open
Systems Technologies, Inc., Sans Consulting, Inc., TCS America
and Wipro Limited, Long Island City, New York. The workers'
firm is engaged in activities related to the supply of
information technology services.
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 acquired from a foreign country services like or
directly competitive with information technology services
supplied by the workers, which contributed importantly to
worker group separations at Citibank, N.A., a subsidiary of
Citigroup, Inc., Global Consumer Retail Banking Technology-
Enterprise Applications, Rainbow USA Applications Integration
And Deployment & Transaction Processing Divisions, Long Island
City, New York.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Citibank, N.A., a
subsidiary of Citigroup, Inc., Global Consumer Retail Banking
Technology-Enterprise Applications, Rainbow USA Applications
Integration And Deployment & Transaction Processing Divisions,
Long Island City, New York, engaged in activities related to the
supply of information technology 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 Citibank, N.A., a subsidiary of Citigroup,
Inc., Global Consumer Retail Banking Technology-
Enterprise Applications, Rainbow USA Applications
Integration And Deployment & Transaction Processing
Divisions, including on-site leased workers from
Accenture, Apex Systems Incorporated, Axelon, Compucom,
Hiregenics, Inc., Infosys Technologies Limited US,
Mitchell Martin, Inc., Norgate Technology, Open Systems
Technologies, Inc., Sans Consulting, Inc., TCS America
and Wipro Limited, Long Island City, New York, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
December 27, 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 29th day of January, 2014.
