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 9, 2016 by the State of Oregon on behalf of workers
of CDK Global, LLC, Portland, Oregon (CDK Global). The worker
group includes on-site leased workers from Aerotek/Teksystems,
Apex Systems, Inc., EdgeLink, LLC, Insight Global, Inc., Kforce,
Inc., Matien Silver Group, Randstad North America, The Ascent
Services Group, VanderHouwen and Associates Inc., and Robert
Half International. The workers of the subject firm are engaged
in activities related to the supply of IT development 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 CDK Global 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 portion of
services like or directly competitive with the services supplied
by the subject workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at CDK Global.

Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of CDK Global, who are
engaged in activities related to the supply of IT development
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 CDK Global, LLC, including on-site leased
workers from Aerotek/Teksystems, Apex Systems, Inc.,
EdgeLink, LLC, Insight Global, Inc., Kforce, Inc., Matien
Silver Group, Randstad North America, The Ascent Services
Group, VanderHouwen and Associates Inc., and Robert Half
International, Portland, Oregon, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after June 8, 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 8th day of July 2016.
