STAND. COM. REP. NO. 2265
Honolulu, Hawaii
RE: S.B. No. 2719
S.D. 1
Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi
President of the Senate
Thirty-Second State Legislature
Regular Session of 2024
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Labor and Technology, to which was referred S.B. No. 2719 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose and intent of this measure is to appropriate funds to establish an unspecified number of positions within the Employee Classification and Compensation Division of the Department of Human Resources Development to perform employee classification duties.
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure from the Department of Human Resources Development.
Your Committee finds that the Department of Human Resources Development is responsible for conducting job analyses and updating job descriptions for over one thousand four hundred existing civil service classes of work. Your Committee further finds, however, that the Department currently lacks sufficient personnel to perform these employee classification duties. This measure will enable the Department of Human Resources Development to perform these duties in a timely and efficient manner.
Your Committee has amended this measure by:
(1) Inserting an effective date of July 1, 2050, to encourage further discussion; and
(2) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for the purposes of clarity and consistency.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Labor and Technology that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2719, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 2719, S.D. 1, and be referred to your Committee on Ways and Means.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Labor and Technology,
