Laid-off programmers have filed a lawsuit accusing the US Department of Labor of illegally denying them job-training benefits available to workers in industries where jobs have moved overseas. The suit, which seeks class-action status, was filed Jan. 2 in the US Court of International Trade in New York, said Michael G. Smith, attorney for the plaintiffs. The suit wants a judge to order the Labor Department to make laid-off software workers eligible for weekly cash payments and other benefits under the Trade Adjustment Assistance program.
