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 9, 2018 by three workers on behalf of workers
of Thomson Reuters, Financial & Risk, Reuters, & Thomson
Reuters Corporate Divisions, including on-site leased workers
from Randstad Sourceright, New York, New York (herein referred
to as "Thomson Reuters"). The workers' firm is engaged in
activities related to the supply of quality assurance, financial
software and data analysis services. Workers are separately
identifiable by business unit and/or core/enabling function, and
by job title.
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 acquired from a foreign country services like or
directly competitive with services supplied by the 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,
Financial & Risk, Reuters, & Thomson Reuters Corporate
Divisions, including on-site leased workers from Randstad
Sourceright, New York, New York, who are engaged in activities
related to the supply of quality assurance, financial software
and data analysis 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, Financial & Risk,
Reuters, & Thomson Reuters Corporate Divisions, including
on-site leased workers from Randstad Sourceright, New
York, New York, who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after February 8, 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."
Signed in Washington, D.C. this 20th day of April 2018.
