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 31, 2018 by three workers on behalf of the
workers of Transamerica Life Insurance Company, TT Cyberlife
Product Development and TT Cyberlife Support Division, including
on-site leased workers from DXC Technology, St. Petersburg,
Florida ("Transamerica Life Insurance Company").
The workers of Transamerica Life Insurance Company is
engaged in activities related to the supply of technical and
system maintenance services in support of their cyberlife
products.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the petitioner and the workers' firm.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant number
or proportion of the workers in Transamerica Life Insurance
Company 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 the conversion services supplied by the
subject workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at Transamerica Life Insurance Company.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Transamerica Life
Insurance Company, TT Cyberlife Product Development and TT
Cyberlife Support Division, including on-site leased workers
from DXC Technology, St. Petersburg, Florida, who are engaged in
activities related to the supply of technical and system
maintenance services in support of their cyberlife products,
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 Transamerica Life Insurance Company, TT
Cyberlife Product Development and TT Cyberlife Support
Division, including on-site leased workers from DXC
Technology, St. Petersburg, Florida, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after January 30,
2017 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."
