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 May 13, 2019, by a company official on behalf of workers
and former workers of PHH Mortgage Corporation, a wholly owned
subsidiary of Ocwen Financial Corporation, Mount Laurel, New
Jersey (PHH Mortgage Corporation). The workers' firm is engaged
in activities related to the supply of mortgage loan service
support services.
The worker group includes workers whose wages are reported
under Ocwen Financial Corporation or Ocwen Loan Servicing, LLC and
includes on-site leased workers from CSSvSource.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the petition 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 acquired from a foreign country the supply of services like or
directly competitive with the mortgage loan service support
services supplied by the workers which contributed importantly to
worker group separations at PHH Mortgage Corporation.



Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of PHH Mortgage
Corporation, who are engaged in activities related to the supply
of mortgage loan service support 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:
"Workers of PHH Mortgage Corporation, a wholly owned
subsidiary of Ocwen Financial Corporation, including workers
whose wages are reported under Ocwen Financial Corporation or
Ocwen Loan Servicing, LLC, including on-site leased workers
from CSSvSource, Mount Laurel, New Jersey, who became totally
or partially separated from employment on or after May 10,
2018, 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 12th day of June 2019.
