Merit Appeals Board September 19, 2018 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />MS. YAMADA: That’s correct. <br /> <br />CHR. NAHUINA: Oh, that is correct? <br /> <br />MR. BRILHANTE: It’s correct now. <br /> <br />CHR. NAHUINA: All right. So, we have lunch issues but on the other—I don’t know where <br />people are if we want to try to power through it. <br /> <br />MR. BRILHANTE: Well, this is what I can do. I can—what I wanted to do was, I can do a <br />director’s report in about 5 to 10 minutes. <br /> <br />CHR. NAHUINA: Oh, okay. <br /> <br />MR. BRILHANTE: And what I’ll do is this doc—this information I was going to give you <br />regarding numbers and stuff, I—what I can do is I can incorporate it into a handout, give it to <br />Glynis, and she can have—send it out to you. <br /> <br />And this report is just a report that I provide to the Administration and it’s our Human Resource <br />benchmarks that we provide to the Administration as to whether or not we’re servicing the public <br />satisfactorily.

And then, Labor Relations—and it goes all the way down to where the last pages <br />are Health and Safety. So, it’s just a chronology of our divisions and how they met the <br />requirements. <br /> <br />For my quarterly report—my director’s report—I wanted to touch two items. One was—we had <br />a discussion earlier today regarding Blue Zones. And I wanted to just report to you is that we <br />took it upon—on behalf of the County, we were fortunate to meet with Karen Teshima from <br />HMSA—Blue Zones Coordinator. And she proposed that the County engage in a program <br />where we support and we adopt Blue Zones and we come one of the participating members. <br /> <br />My understanding is several of the high schools— <br /> <br />CHR. NAHUINA: Yes. <br /> <br />MR. BRILHANTE: —have engaged in the process and several other private sector entities. <br />But, according to Karen, no government entity as large as the County has come on board, yet. <br />So, she was very happy that we were, kind of, engaged in the process. <br /> <br />And the reason I thought it was important is—government is limited as a—in—when we deal <br />with relations between employer and employees.
