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 January 19, 2017 by the State Workforce Office on
behalf of workers of EmblemHealth Services Company, LLC, a
subsidiary of EmblemHealth, Inc., New York, New York (92,562),
EmblemHealth Services Company, LLC, a subsidiary of
EmblemHealth, Inc., Melville, New York (92,562A), EmblemHealth
Services Company, LLC, a subsidiary of EmblemHealth, Inc.,
Hollywood, Florida (92,562B), and EmblemHealth Services
Company, LLC, a subsidiary of EmblemHealth, Inc., New York,
New York (92,562C) (hereafter collectively referred to as
"EmblemHealth"). The workers' firm is engaged in activities
related to the supply of health insurance. The subject worker
groups do 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 EmblemHealth 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 the supply of services
like or directly competitive with health insurance services
supplied by the workers which contributed importantly to worker
group separations at EmblemHealth.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of EmblemHealth, who are
engaged in activities related to the supply of health insurance,
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 EmblemHealth Services Company, LLC, a
subsidiary of EmblemHealth, Inc., 441 9th Avenue, New
York, New York (92,562), EmblemHealth Services Company,
LLC, a subsidiary of EmblemHealth, Inc., Melville, New
York (92,562A), EmblemHealth Services Company, LLC, a
subsidiary of EmblemHealth, Inc., Hollywood, Florida
(92,562B), and EmblemHealth Services Company, LLC, a
subsidiary of EmblemHealth, Inc., 55 Water Street, New
York, New York (92,562C), who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after January 19, 2016,
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 10th day of March 2017.
