REQUESTING THE STATE OF HAWAII TO REQUIRE THAT ANY INDIVIDUAL OR GROUP THAT ADMINISTERS THE MANDATORY HARASSMENT AND DISCRIMINATION TRAINING TO EMPLOYEES DEMONSTRATE ADEQUATE COMPETENCY IN LGBTQ+ (LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL, TRANSGENDER, QUEER, AND MORE IDENTITIES) IDENTITY AND CULTURALLY SPECIFIC GENDER IDENTITY RELEVANT TO HAWAIʻI.

This House Resolution requests the State of Hawaii require trainers of mandatory workplace harassment and discrimination training to demonstrate competency in LGBTQ+ identities and culturally specific gender identities relevant to Hawaii. It specifically calls for training to include terms like "mähü" (Tahiti/Hawaii) and "fa'afafine" (Samoa), aiming to improve consistency and inclusivity in state employee training programs. The resolution is a non-binding request to the state, not an enacted law, focusing on enhancing training content rather than mandating new policies.
