A pilot program that would have considerably changed the work responsibilities of our members at Maui Community Mental Health Center’s Adult Mental Health Division was put on pause by the Hawaii Labor Relations Board pending consultation.
The decision is a major victory for the rights of members in Units 3, 9 and 13 at the facility who, in addition to role changes, would have been forced to work alongside outside contractors.
“HGEA had to fight for us because we had no voice in the clinic operation, in our teamwork, in anything that we did for the community and for our families we serve,” said Mary Akimo-Luuwai, Human Services Professional V, a Unit 13 member. “We were standing alone.”
Here’s how we stood up for these members’ rights and won big.
