Free workshop!
There aren't many things that are free these days, but our Chapter 104 workshop still is! The next one is scheduled for March 20 at 830 Punchbowl Street, Room 310, Honolulu, HI 96813, at 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. The class takes a little bit more than two hours with a break and some exercises, with time left at the end to discuss specific issues of attendees.
Availability
The Wage Standards Division schedules a prevailing wage class at least twice a year, once in March and once in October. Typically they are booked SRO. This March has a smaller audience as of today so there is room for you if you've been worried about all those new penalties that were passed in 2016 Act 192.
Workshop highlights
The agenda includes a little theory, a lot of practical information, and some-hands on exercises to understand what is needed to be in compliance. In addition, we just had a public hearing on new rules that are in the process of being finalized and published. Get first hand up-to-date information on these new rules.
Who should come?
Anyone who wants to understand what and how to pay construction employees who are working on a state or county funded project! If the money came from a State or local public entity or in some other way promoted by a State or county entity then it is more than likely subject to this law. Payroll clerks, project managers, construction company owners or construction workers who want to understand the law, avoid penalties, and work with State and counties to build a better Hawaii!
