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 21, 2016, by the state workforce office on
behalf of workers of New York Life Insurance Company,
Technology and Finance Divisions, New York, New York (New York
Life- 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-Technology and
Finance) supplies internal support services that include
operations, finance, and technology services and includes on-
site leased workers from Deemsys, Inc., Eclaro International,
Inc., and Momentum Resource Solutions, LLC.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm and the petitioner.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant
number or proportion of the workers in New York Life-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 the internal support services supplied
by the subject workers which contributed importantly to worker
group separations at New York Life-Technology and Finance.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of New York Life-
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 Divisions, including on-site
leased workers from Deemsys, Inc., Eclaro International,
Inc., and Momentum Resource Solutions, LLC, New York, New
York, who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after August 21, 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.
