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 June 10, 2015 by workers on behalf of workers of Dex
Media, Los Alamitos, California ("Dex Media"). The workers' firm
is engaged in activities related to the supply of marketing and
advertising services, including support functions such as sales,
human resources, sales support services, and publishing
administrator services. The subject worker group includes on-site
leased workers from Advantage Technical Resourcing (formerly TAC).
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 the marketing and advertising services supplied
by the subject workers, which contributed importantly to worker
group separations at Dex Media.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Dex Media, Los
Alamitos, California, who are engaged in activities related to the
supply of marketing and advertising 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 Dex Media, including on-site leased workers
from Advantage Technical Resourcing (formerly TAC), Los
Alamitos, California, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after June 9, 2014, 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."
