STAND. COM. REP. NO. 2663
Honolulu, Hawaii
RE: S.B. No. 2213
S.D. 2
Honorable Shan S. Tsutsui
President of the Senate
Twenty-Sixth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2012
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred S.B. No. 2213, S.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO CIVIL SERVICE,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose and intent of this measure is to clarify the scope of the requirement that, prior to the discharge of an employee from service or release of the employee from the employee's position due to the employee's failure to meet performance requirement, the appointing authority consider a transfer to another position for which the employee is qualified.
The measure clarifies this consideration requirement by limiting the scope of the appointing authority's review to only the positions that are within the appointing authority's department.
Your Committee received written comments in support of this measure from the Department of Human Resources Development and the Hawaii Government Employees Association.
Your Committee finds that this measure properly clarifies the scope of the job search, with respect to a public employee, that an appointing authority has to undertake prior to the discharge of the employee from service, or release of the employee from the employee's position, due to the employee's failure to meet performance requirements.
Your Committee has amended this measure to further clarify that the appointing authority for the public employee must consider another position administrated by the appointing authority, rather than a position within the same department of the appointing authority.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Ways and Means that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2213, S.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 2213, S.D. 2.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
