LEE HECHT HARRISON
A SUBSIDIARY OF THE ADECCO GROUP
INCLUDING ON-SITE LEASED WORKERS
FROM ACCOUNTING PRINCIPALS AND MODIS
MAITLAND, FLORIDA

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 June 29, 2020 on behalf of workers and former workers of
Lee Hecht Harrison, a subsidiary of The Adecco Group, Maitland,
Florida (Lee Hecht Harrison-Maitland). The workers' firm is
engaged in activities related to the supply of career transition
and executive coaching services. The worker group includes on-
site leased workers from Accounting Principals and Modis.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant number
or proportion of the workers in Lee Hecht Harrison-Maitland 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 those supplied by the subject workers
which contributed importantly to worker group separations at Lee
Hecht Harrison-Maitland.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Lee Hecht Harrison-
Maitland 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 Lee Hecht Harrison, a subsidiary of The
Adecco Group, including on-site leased workers from
Accounting Principals and Modis, Maitland, Florida, who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after June 10, 2019 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 4th day of September 2020.
