THE SENATE	S.B. NO.	2884
TWENTY-FIFTH LEGISLATURE, 2010
STATE OF HAWAII

A BILL FOR AN ACT

 

 

making an appropriation for collective bargaining cost items.

 

 

BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:

 

     SECTION 1.  Under section 89-9(e), Hawaii Revised Statutes, negotiations between the exclusive representative and the employer are permitted on the amounts that the State and the counties contribute under sections 87A-32 through 87A-37, Hawaii Revised Statutes, toward the payment of health benefit plan costs.  The parties are not permitted to use the binding arbitration process to resolve disputes relating to the employer contributions to the Hawaii employer-union health benefits trust fund under part IV, chapter 87A, Hawaii Revised Statutes.  Because the parties were unable to resolve their differences through negotiations, a determination pursuant to section 89‑11(g), Hawaii Revised Statutes, on contributions for health benefits must be made by the legislature.
