RE:   H.B. No. 558

 

 

 

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Sixth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2011

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Labor & Public Employment, to which was referred H.B. No. 558 entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO WAGES, HOURS, AND WORKING CONDITIONS OF EMPLOYEES OF CONTRACTORS PERFORMING SERVICES,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this bill is to ensure fair compensation to private sector employees by requiring any private sector employer entering into a service contract in excess of $25,000 with any government agency, to certify that wages or salaries paid to the employee providing the service will be not less than the wages paid to the public employees in the State doing similar work.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Labor & Public Employment that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 558 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Finance.

 

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Labor & Public Employment,
