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 23, 2016 by a duly authorized representative on
behalf of workers of the Global Product Development group,
within Experian, Credit Services - Experian Data Quality,
Costa Mesa, California (herein known as "Experian" or
"workers' firm"). The workers' firm is engaged in activities
related to the supply of credit risk management, fraud
prevention, target marketing, automate decision making, and
credit reporting services. The subject worker group includes
on-site leased workers from Allegis Global Solutions.
The worker group was certified eligible to apply for
Trade Adjustment Assistance under petition number TA-W-82,506F
which expired on April 4, 2015. The determination did not name
on-site leased workers from Allegis Global Solutions.
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 a service
like or directly competitive with the service supplied by the
workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at Experian.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of the Global Product
Development group, within Experian, Credit Services - Experian
Data Quality, including on-site leased workers from Allegis
Global Solutions, Costa Mesa, California, who are engaged in
activities related to the supply of credit risk management,
fraud prevention, target marketing, automate decision making,
and credit reporting 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 the Global Product Development group,
within Experian, Credit Services - Experian Data Quality,
Costa Mesa, California, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after April 5, 2015 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;
AND,
All workers of the Allegis Global Solutions, working on-
site at Experian, the Global Product Development group,
Credit Services - Experian Data Quality, Costa Mesa,
California, who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after March 22, 2015 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 17th day of June 2016.
