For more than three decades, business professional Dennis Martire has been significantly dedicated to the hard work that individuals conduct every day. In 1990, he began his quite successful career with the Laborers’ International Union of North America. At that time, he acted as international representative for the organization’s jurisdictional disputes department. He then continued to rise in the ranks of LIUNA as assistant director then director of the construction department. In 2000, he became assistant regional manager of the mid-Atlantic region. He only held this position for two years before beginning the role that he still holds until this day -- regional manager of the mid-Atlantic area in addition to vice president for the area LIUNA division. Martire has remained completely dedicated to LIUNA for more than 30 years and continues that commitment today.

 Dennis Martire has amassed many accomplishments during his 30 years of service to the Laborers’ International Union of North America. Most of those successes directly affect labor unions and workers within the United States and, specifically, the mid-Atlantic region where he acts as vice president and regional manager. One of the most notable triumphs was his work to establish a LIUNA labor union among those workers on Fluor-Lane’s expansion of the Route 495 Hot Lanes Project.

There, Dennis Martire was instrumental toward giving power back to the unionizing workers, who inevitably voted overwhelmingly in favor of establishing a labor union. Their election for representation -- aided immensely by Martire’s leadership -- marked one of the largest union victories in Virginia among the construction industry. Over 200 workers voted favorably to make this happen.
