HI HB814

Limits group life insurance benefits through the Hawaii Employer-Union Health Benefits Trust Fund to retired employees who retired before July 1, 2011, and prohibits benefits for active employees and those retiring after that date.

Eliminates the annual adjustment provision for the base monthly contribution ($4.16) for retired employees' group life insurance, maintaining a flat dollar amount instead.

Removes provisions allowing negotiation of group life insurance contributions for active employees from collective bargaining agreements.

Modifies definitions in Hawaii's public employment law to clarify that collective bargaining covers "health benefits plans" rather than specific references to the health fund.

Effective date of July 1, 2050.
