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 November 21, 2019 by three workers on behalf of workers
of Carestream Health, Inc., Information Technology, including
on-site leased workers from Datrose, Aerotek, Miller &
Associates, Mindex Technologies, Modis IT, A+ Consulting, and
First Consulting, Rochester, New York. The workers are engaged
in activities related to the supply of information technology
services.
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 acquired from a foreign country services like or
directly competitive with services supplied by the workers which
contributed importantly to the worker group separations at
Carestream Health, Inc., Information Technology, Rochester,
New York.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Carestream Health,
Inc., Information Technology, including on-site leased workers
from Datrose, Aerotek, Miller & Associates, Mindex
Technologies, Modis IT, A+ Consulting, and First Consulting,
Rochester, New York, who are engaged in activities related to
the supply of information technology 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 Carestream Health, Inc., Information
Technology, including on-site leased workers from
Datrose, Aerotek, Miller & Associates, Mindex
Technologies, Modis IT, A+ Consulting, and First
Consulting, Rochester, New York, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after November
20, 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 January 2020.
