Summary of differences between federal and state regulations
Federal law generally does not regulate employment contracts between employers and employees with one exception: contracts that require the joining or refraining from joining of a labor union as a condition of employment. On the federal level, these contracts are governed by the National Labor Relations Act. States may have a corresponding provision and may also have additional provisions regarding employment contracts.
Hawaii has no specific provisions in regard to employment contracts and union membership. It does, however, contain the following provision relative to employment contracts.
An employee can not be required to enter into an agreement to waive his or her rights to unemployment compensation benefits, nor agree to pay any portion of the employer’s required contributions. §383-161
