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 July 30, 2018, by a state workforce office on behalf of
workers of Citicorp Credit Services, Inc. (USA), a wholly owned
subsidiary of Citibank, N.A., a wholly owned subsidiary of
Citicorp, a wholly owned subsidiary of Citigroup, Inc., Urbandale,
Iowa (Citicorp Credit Services-Urbandale). Workers of Citicorp
Credit Services-Urbandale are engaged in activities related to the
supply of banking and financial services. The worker group does
not include on-site leased workers.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the petitioner and 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 services like or
directly competitive with the banking and financial services
supplied by the subject workers which contributed importantly to
worker group separations at Citicorp Credit Services-Urbandale.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Citicorp Credit
Services-Urbandale, who are engaged in activities related to the
supply of banking and financial 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 Citicorp Credit Services, Inc. (USA), a
wholly owned subsidiary of Citibank, N.A., a wholly owned
subsidiary of Citicorp, a wholly owned subsidiary of
Citigroup, Inc., Urbandale, Iowa, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after July 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."
Signed in Washington, D.C. this 31st day of August 2018.
