AT&T Services, Inc., Reynoldsburg,
OH; Notice of Negative Determination
on Reconsideration
On January 21, 2011, the Department
of Labor issued an Affirmative
Determination Regarding Application
for Reconsideration for the workers and
former workers of AT&T Services, Inc.,
Reynoldsburg, Ohio (subject firm). The
Notice of determination was published
in the Federal Register on February 2,
2011 (76 FR 5831). Workers supply
customer care call services.
Pursuant to 29 CFR 90.18(c),
reconsideration may be granted under
the following circumstances:
(1) If it appears on the basis of facts
not previously considered that the
determination complained of was
erroneous;
(2) If it appears that the determination
complained of was based on a mistake
in the determination of facts not
previously considered; or
(3) If in the opinion of the Certifying
Officer, a misinterpretation of facts or of
the law justified reconsideration of the
decision.
The negative determination was based
on the findings that the worker
separations are not attributable to
increased imports of services by the
subject firm or a shift in the supply of
services by the subject firm to a foreign
country. Rather, the investigation
established that the worker separations
are attributable to the subject firm
shifting customer care call services to
other facilities within the United States.
The investigation also revealed the firm
is not a supplier or downstream
producer to a firm that employed a
worker group eligible to apply for Trade
Adjustment Assistance (TAA).
In the request for reconsideration, the
petitioners alleged that the subject firm
has shifted services to a foreign country.
During the reconsideration, the
Department received information that
shows that AT&T Services, Inc. (and not
AT&T) is the appropriate name of the
firm, and the heading has been changed
to properly reflect the firm’s name.
Information obtained during the
reconsideration investigation confirmed
that all of the workers who worked at
the subject firm are referred to as
‘‘Legacy T workers’’ and ‘‘Customer Sales
and Service Specialists (CSSS)’’; that
none of the services previously supplied
by the subject firm (or like or directly
competitive services) was outsourced to

Conclusion
After reconsideration, I affirm the
original notice of negative
determination of eligibility to apply for
worker adjustment assistance for
workers and former workers of AT&T
Services, Inc., Reynoldsburg, Ohio.
Signed in Washington, DC, on this 2nd day
of May 2011.

On October 7, 2010, the Department
of Labor issued an Affirmative
Determination Regarding Application
for Reconsideration for the workers and
former workers of the subject facilities.
The workers are engaged in activities
related to the supply of warehousing
and distribution services related to
automotive parts.
Pursuant to 29 CFR 90.18(c),
reconsideration may be granted under
the following circumstances:
(1) If it appears on the basis of facts
not previously considered that the
determination complained of was
erroneous;
(2) If it appears that the determination
complained of was based on a mistake
in the determination of facts not
previously considered; or
(3) If in the opinion of the Certifying
Officer, a mis-interpretation of facts or
of the law justified
The negative determination was based
on the findings that there was no
increase in imports of services like or
directly competitive with those
supplied by the subject workers and no
shift to/acquisition from a foreign
country by the workers’ firm in the
supply of services like or directly
competitive with those supplied by the
subject workers.
The request for reconsideration
asserts that the workers are eligible to
apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance
(TAA) as adversely-affected secondary
workers because they ‘‘provide
replacement and accessory parts for new
vehicles’’ and identified firms that
employed worker groups eligible to
apply for TAA.
Section 222(d) of the Act, 19 U.S.C.
2272(d), defines the term ‘‘Supplier’’ as
‘‘a firm that produces and supplies
directly to another firm component
parts for articles, or services used in the
production of articles or in the supply
of services, as the case may be, that were
the basis for a certification of eligibility
under subsection (a) [of Section 222 of
the Act] of a group of workers employed
by such other firm.’’
