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 November 24, 2015 by the State Workforce office on
behalf of workers of SourceMedia LLC, New York, New York
(SourceMedia LLC). The workers' firm is engaged in activities
related to the supply of publishing, digital media, and
conference services. The subject worker group includes workers
whose wages are reported under TriNet. The subject worker group
does not include on-site leased workers.
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 services supplied by the workers which
contributed importantly to worker group separations at
SourceMedia LLC.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of SourceMedia LLC, New
York, New York, who are engaged in activities related to the
supply of publishing, digital media, and conference 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 SourceMedia LLC, including workers whose
wages are reported under TriNet, New York, New York, who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after November 23, 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."
