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 September 13, 2016, by the state workforce office on
behalf of workers of New York Life Insurance Company, Technology
and Finance Division, Lebanon, New Jersey (New York Life
Insurance-Technology and Finance). The workers' firm is engaged
in activities related to the supply of insurance and financial
services. The subject work group (New York Life Insurance-
Technology and Finance) supplies internal support services that
include operations, finance, and technology services.
The subject work group (New York Life Insurance-Technology and
Finance) includes on-site leased workers from AKT LLC, Case
Interactive LLC, HCR Group, Inc., ICONMA LLC, NextSource, Inc.,
RTP Technology Corp., and VDX, Inc.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm and petitioner.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant number
or proportion of the workers in New York Life Insurance-Technology
and Finance 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 New York
Life Insurance-Technology and Finance.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of New York Life Insurance-
Technology and Finance, who are engaged in activities related to
the supply of internal support 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 New York Life Insurance Company, Technology
and Finance Division, including on-site leased workers from
AKT LLC, Case Interactive LLC, HCR Group, Inc., ICONMA LLC,
NextSource, Inc., RTP Technology Corp., and VDX, Inc.,
Lebanon, New Jersey, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after August 15, 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 21st day of October 2016.
