This bill amends Hawaii's collective bargaining laws to specify grievance procedures for public employers and employees.

This bill modifies Hawaii Revised Statutes to clarify grievance procedures for public employers and employees. It mandates that public employers enter into written agreements with exclusive representatives, detailing grievance procedures for disputes over written agreements. The bill specifies that disputes over agreement terms do not constitute grievances, and employees can grieve only if allowed by the collective bargaining agreement. The final decision in such grievances must be made by a performance judge.
