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

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 August 19, 2019 on behalf of workers of Thomson
Reuters, Bellevue, Washington. The workers are engaged in
activities related to the supply of legal and tax software
solutions, research and editorial content services, and news and
media content services. The workers are not separately
identifiable by function.

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 shifted to a foreign country a portion of the supply of
a service like or directly competitive with the service supplied
by the workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations Thomson Reuters, Bellevue, Washington.




Conclusion

After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Thomson Reuters,
Bellevue, Washington, who are engaged in activities related to
the supply of legal and tax software solutions, research and
editorial content services, and news and media content services,

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, Bellevue, Washington, who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after August 12, 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."
