STAND. COM. REP. NO.3546

Honolulu, Hawaii

, 2002

RE: H.B. No. 2481

H.D. 1

 

 

Honorable Robert Bunda

President of the Senate

Twenty-First State Legislature

Regular Session of 2002

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred H.B. No. 2481, H.D. 1, entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO CIVIL SERVICE EXEMPTIONS,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this measure is to exempt employees in the Department of Education engaged in the distribution, collection, and counting of meal tickets, on less than a half-time basis, from the civil service law.

In addition, this measure exempts employees in the Department of Education engaged in the supervision of students during breakfast periods, in addition to lunch and mid-morning lunch periods, on less than a half-time basis, from the civil service law.

Your Committee finds that this measure will allow the Department of Education flexibility in the hiring of persons to fill frequent vacancies since turnover in these positions is very high and employment is temporary.

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 H.B. No. 2481, H.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Third Reading.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
