Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Third State Legislature

Regular Session of 2005

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committees on Education and Labor & Public Employment, to which was referred H.B. No. 758 entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO EMPLOYMENT PRACTICES,"

beg leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this bill is to require the Department of Education (DOE) to adhere to the minimum wage law when setting wages for meal ticket and adult supervisors.

DOE supported this bill.

Your Committees have amended this bill by:

(1) Changing the term "meal ticket" to "meal count assistant" to correctly reflect the job title;

(2) Adding classroom cleaners to the requirement; and

(3) Making other technical, nonsubstantive amendments for clarity and style.

 

As affirmed by the records of votes of the members of your Committees on Education and Labor & Public Employment that are attached to this report, your Committees are in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 758, as amended herein, and recommend that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 758, H.D. 1, and be referred to the Committee on Finance.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committees on Education and Labor & Public Employment,
