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 June 27, 2017 by the state workforce office on behalf
of workers of Checkfreepay Corporation, a subsidiary of Fiserv,
Inc., including workers reporting wages under multiple FEIN,
and including on-site leased workers from Randstad,
Wallingford, Connecticut, hereafter referred to as
"Checkfreepay". The workers' firm is engaged in activities
related to the supply of billing & accounting services. The
subject worker group includes on-site leased workers from
Randstad. Workers are not separately identifiable by the service
supplied.
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 such workers' firm 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 service
like or directly competitive with the service supplied by the
workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at Checkfreepay.

Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Checkfreepay
Corporation, a subsidiary of Fiserv, Inc., including workers
reporting wages under multiple FEIN, and including on-site
leased workers from Randstad, Wallingford, Connecticut, who are
engaged in activities related to the supply of billing &
accounting 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 Checkfreepay Corporation, a subsidiary of
Fiserv, Inc., including workers reporting wages under
multiple FEIN, and including on-site leased workers from
Randstad, Wallingford, Connecticut, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after June 26,
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 13th day of July 2017.
