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 April 12, 2017 by a company official on behalf of
workers of Rockwood Casualty Insurance Company, a subsidiary of
Argo Group International Holdings, LTD., Rockwood,
Pennsylvania (TA-W-92,814) and San Antonio, Texas (TA-W-
92,814A). Rockwood Casualty Insurance Company is engaged in
activities related to the supply of underwriting services
specifically for workers' compensation insurance. The subject
worker group is engaged in activities related to the supply of
information technology and quality assurance services. The
worker groups include on-site leased workers from Wipro,
Secure 24, and CSS Corporation.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant
number or proportion of the workers at Rockwood Casualty
Insurance Company, Rockwood, Pennsylvania and San Antonio, Texas
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 services
like or directly competitive with the services supplied by the
subject workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at Rockwood Casualty Insurance Company, Rockwood,
Pennsylvania and San Antonio, Texas.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Rockwood Casualty
Insurance Company, Rockwood, Pennsylvania and San Antonio,
Texas, who are engaged in activities related to the supply of
information technology and quality assurance 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 Rockwood Casualty Insurance Company, a
subsidiary of Argo Group International Holdings, LTD.,
including on-site leased workers from Wipro, Secure 24,
and CSS Corporation, Rockwood, Pennsylvania (TA-W-92,814)
and Rockwood Casualty Insurance Company, a subsidiary of
Argo Group International Holdings, LTD., including on-
site leased workers from Wipro, Secure 24, and CSS
Corporation, San Antonio, Texas (TA-W-92,814A), who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
April 11, 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 27th day of June 2017.
