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, 2018, by a state workforce office on behalf
of workers of Dimension Data North America, Inc., Managed
Services Global Services Center (GSC) Engineering Workers, a
wholly owned subsidiary of Dimension Data (Pty) Ltd., Reston,
Virginia (TA-W-93,925) ; Dimension Data North America, Inc.,
Managed Services Global Services Center (GSC) Engineering
Workers, a wholly owned subsidiary of Dimension Data (Pty) Ltd.,
including on-site leased workers of Xoriant Corporation,
Raleigh, North Carolina (TA-W-93,925A); Dimension Data North
America, Inc., Managed Services Global Services Center (GSC)
Engineering Workers, a wholly owned subsidiary of Dimension Data
(Pty) Ltd., Natick, Massachusetts (TA-W-93,925B); Dimension Data
North America, Inc., Managed Services Global Services Center
(GSC) Engineering Workers, a wholly owned subsidiary of
Dimension Data (Pty) Ltd., Rancho Cordova, California (TA-W-
93,925C); Dimension Data North America, Inc., Managed Services
Global Services Center (GSC) Engineering Workers, a wholly owned
subsidiary of Dimension Data (Pty) Ltd., Valencia, California
(TA-W-93,925D); Dimension Data North America, Inc., Managed
Services Global Services Center (GSC) Engineering Workers, a
wholly owned subsidiary of Dimension Data (Pty) Ltd.,
Alpharetta, Georgia (TA-W-93,925E); Dimension Data North
America, Inc., Managed Services Global Services Center (GSC)
Engineering Workers, a wholly owned subsidiary of Dimension Data
(Pty) Ltd., Fort Mill, South Carolina (TA-W-93,925F); and
Dimension Data North America, Inc., Managed Services Global
Services Center (GSC) Engineering Workers, a wholly owned
subsidiary of Dimension Data (Pty) Ltd., Austin, Texas (TA-W-
93,925G) ("Dimension Data North America, Inc."). The
appropriate worker group for the petition is the Managed
Services Global Services Center (GSC) engineering workers that
includes remote (home) workers and workers that work at an
actual Dimension Data site. There is no such team as a "Tier
2 Team" (as cited within the petition form filed), as it is a
term used specifically amongst the workers when referring to
their group. The workers' firm is engaged in activities related
to the supply of information technology services, which includes
outsourcing, consulting, and managed services. The subject
workers of the firm's Managed Services Global Services Center
(GSC) supply engineering and technical support services to
clients of the firm.
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 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 Dimension Data North America, Inc.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Dimension Data North
America, Inc., Managed Services Global Services Center (GSC)
Engineering Workers, a wholly owned subsidiary of Dimension Data
(Pty) Ltd., Reston, Virginia (TA-W-93,925) ; Dimension Data

1974, as amended."
