The purposes of this informational briefing include providing the committees an opportunity to explore numerous questions that have arisen over the Department of Labor & Industrial Relation's (DLIR) Hawai‘i Occupational Safety & Health Division's investigation into the death of a worker in the collapse of a Hawaiian Cement tower at Campbell Industrial Park in May 2009. 

 

The committees will also inquire into the Department's decision to forego attempting to obtain available federal funds to augment the unemployment compensation benefits for thousands of Hawai‘i workers that have exhausted their unemployment insurance benefits during the current economic downturn.
