RE: H.B. No. 758
H.D. 2
Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twenty-Third State Legislature
Regular Session of 2005
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred H.B. No. 758, H.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO EMPLOYMENT PRACTICES,"
begs 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 count assistants, adult supervisors, and classroom cleaners.
DOE and the Department of Labor and Industrial Relations supported the intent of this bill and offered amendments.
Accordingly, your Committee has amended this bill by:
(1) Inserting the minimum wage provisions within chapter 302A, Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS), relating to education, instead of chapter 387, HRS, relating to the wage and hour law; and
(2) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for clarity and style.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Finance that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 758, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 758, H.D. 2.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Finance,
|
