Brian Doherty

Brian Doherty is the General Agent of the Building and Construction Trades Council, an umbrella group of 20 local construction unions, representing 35,000 working families, in partnership with more than 3,300 union contractors across Greater Boston. The building trades unions advance social and economic justice by providing family-supporting wages, healthcare benefits and dignified retirement benefits to workers and their families in the construction industry. It is through collective bargaining and the Labor-Management partnership that workers achieve the highest levels of training, safety and economic security throughout their careers. The Council strives to create a more fair and just environment for all workers in the construction industry, and work with other workers rights groups to advance union protection for all workers. Workers of the World, Unite!
