SB410 prohibits the State of Hawaii and its counties from requiring a bachelor's degree for most state or county employment positions.
SB410 aims to address the "degree gap" by prohibiting the State of Hawaii and its counties from requiring a bachelor's degree for most state or county employment positions. This bill responds to findings that many job postings require a college degree despite a lower percentage of current employees holding such degrees. Exceptions are made if the knowledge, skills, or abilities required for a position can only reasonably be obtained through a bachelor's degree.
