STAND. COM. REP. NO. 1101-04

Honolulu, Hawaii

, 2004

RE: H.C.R. No. 251

 

 

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Second State Legislature

Regular Session of 2004

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Labor and Public Employment, to which was referred H.C.R. No. 251 entitled:

"HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION DECLARING MAY 7, 2004, AS CLEANERS' APPRECIATION DAY IN THE STATE OF HAWAII,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this concurrent resolution is to declare May 7, 2004 as Cleaner's Appreciation Day in the State of Hawaii.

Supportive testimony was received from a concerned citizen.

Your Committee finds that during the sixty days that the Legislature is in session, more efforts are made to keep the offices clean as the office personnel are busy preparing assignments, and meeting deadlines. The work to keep the offices presentable is left to the custodians, without whom the people's work would not get done. Oftentimes, we take these men and women for granted by saying it is their job. However, they still maintain their composure, and greet us cheerfully without expecting anything in return.

It is in this context that these dedicated workers should be recognized for their devotion to duty. They deserve to be acknowledged for their efforts.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Labor and Public Employment that is attached to this report, your Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of H.C.R. No. 251 and recommends its adoption.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Labor and Public Employment,
