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 17, 2019 by a state workforce office on behalf of
workers of State Street Corporation, USIS Insurance Services
division, Kansas City, Missouri (herein referred to as "State
Street Corporation").
The workers are engaged in activities related to the supply
of accounting and custodial services. .
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 at the 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 services supplied by the workers
which contributed importantly to subject worker group
separations at State Street Corporation.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of State Street
Corporation, USIS Insurance Services division, Kansas City,
Missouri, who are engaged in activities related to the supply of
accounting and custodial 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 State Street Corporation, USIS Insurance
Services Division, Kansas City, Missouri, who became totally
or partially separated from employment on or after July 16,
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 30th day of September 2019.
