HOUSE CONCURRENT
RESOLUTION
REQUESTING EACH public sector JURISDICTION WITHIN THE STATE TO SUBMIT REPORTS ON PERIODIC REPRICING AS REQUIRED UNDER SECTION 89-9, HAWAII REVISED STATUTES.
WHEREAS, under section 76-1, Hawaii Revised Statutes, the human resources program within each public sector jurisdiction is expected to provide equal pay for equal work between classes within the same bargaining unit and among jurisdictions for those classes deemed to be equal; and
WHEREAS, the human resource directors in the various jurisdictions are responsible for ensuring that compensation programs attract and retain efficient and effective employees; and
WHEREAS, under section 89-9(f)(2), Hawaii Revised Statutes, each public sector jurisdiction subject to the collective bargaining law for public employment is required to review the assignment of classes to pay ranges (repricing) at least once every five years; and
WHEREAS, all classes within each jurisdiction's compensation plan are subject to periodic repricing review, except for those members whose salary ranges have been negotiated; and
WHEREAS, the periodic repricing reviews are essential to ensure fair, competitive, and equitable compensation for civil service employees; and
WHEREAS, section 89-9(f)(2), Hawaii Revised Statutes, took effect on July 1, 2002, but the required periodic repricing reviews have not been taking place; and
WHEREAS, this lack of review can lead to inequities in the pay between positions within the same bargaining unit and between private sector and public sector salaries; now, therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED by the House of Representatives of the Twenty-fifth Legislature of the State of Hawaii, Regular Session of 2009, the Senate concurring, that each public sector jurisdiction within the State is requested to comply with the requirements of section 89-9(f)(2), Hawaii Revised Statutes, by conducting periodic repricing reviews; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Legislature requests that repricing reviews by each public sector jurisdiction be concluded before the Regular Session of 2010 and the results distributed to the respective legislative bodies and the exclusive representatives of civil service employees; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that certified copies of this Concurrent Resolution be transmitted to the Governor, the Director of Human Resources Development, the Mayor of each county, the personnel director of each county, the Superintendent of Education, the Administrative Director of the Courts, the Chief Executive Officer of the Hawaii Health Systems Corporation, the Executive Director of the Hawaii Government Employees Association, and the State Director of the United Public Workers.
