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 February 21, 2017, on behalf of workers of Thomson
Reuters, including on-site leased workers from Pontoon,
Hauppauge, New York (TA-W-92,654) and Thomson Reuters, including
on-site leased workers from Pontoon, Nutley, New Jersey (TA-W-
92,654A) (hereafter referred to collectively as "Thomson
Reuters"). The subject worker groups are engaged in activities
related to the supply of content (data and analysis) services.
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 at Thomson Reuters,
Hauppauge, New York and Thomson Reuters, Nutley, New Jersey,
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(n) service
like or directly competitive with the content (data and
analysis) service supplied by the subject workers which
contributed importantly to worker group separations at Thomson
Reuters.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Thomson Reuters,
Hauppauge, New York and Nutley, New Jersey, who are engaged in
activities related to the supply of content 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 Thomson Reuters, including on-site leased
workers from Pontoon, Hauppauge, New York (TA-W-92,654) and
Thomson Reuters, including on-site leased workers from
Pontoon, Nutley, New Jersey (TA-W-92,654A), who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
February 17, 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 21st day of April 2017.
