Play Fair in Hawaii is a campaign to encourage contractors and developers who do business in Hawaii to play by the rules that govern the local construction industry. The majority of contractors and developers in our state conduct business in a legal, ethical, safe and conscientious manner. Unfortunately, there are some in our community who flaunt local rules and hiring practices and violate our laws and island values.

These unscrupulous contractors engage in illegal hiring practices, fail to adhere to safety codes and play fast and loose in other ways to increase their profits at the expense of Hawaii’s skilled workers and consumers. They also gain an unfair competitive advantage over reputable, law-abiding companies. Play Fair in Hawaii was established to expose these practices and hold those who engage in them accountable. We invite you to join us in this effort and help us preserve fair labor practices and quality construction standards in Hawaii.
