HRS §88D-2

Special pay plans for local government employees

This section lets each local government decide whether to create a special pay plan for its workers. If a government makes one, workers covered by a union contract must follow the rules of that contract, and other workers must join the plan. Participation is required for non-union workers in a jurisdiction that has such a plan.
