What Bauindustrieverband Hessen-Thüringen e.V. does

Bauindustrieverband Hessen-Thüringen e.V. is a registered non-profit association (eingetragener Verein) serving as the trade and employers' association for the construction industry in the German states of Hessen and Thüringen. The association represents over 200 medium-sized and large construction companies that collectively employ approximately 20,000 people. Its dual-function role combines economic and political advocacy (Wirtschaftsverband) with labor law and collective bargaining representation (Arbeitgeberverband), providing members with free legal representation up to the Bundesarbeitsgericht, training and seminars, political lobbying at EU, federal, and state levels, and access to industry price indices and statistics. The association also operates as a hub for networking through multiple working groups (Arbeitskreise) covering road construction, railway construction, disposal round tables, labor law, business law, and sustainability.

The association is headquartered in Wiesbaden, with regional offices in Kassel (North Hesse) and Erfurt (Thuringia state group). It is affiliated with the Hauptverband der Deutschen Bauindustrie, the federal umbrella in Berlin, and participates in FIEC, the European Construction Industry Federation. Two operational subsidiaries extend the association's service surface: DigiBau Portal GmbH, a wholly-owned subsidiary operating the DigiBauPortal for centralized management of social security documentation; and ZNB GmbH (Zukunft Nachhaltig Bauen), a jointly controlled subsidiary with four other state construction associations and the national umbrella, delivering sustainability consulting and advisory services. Revenue is generated primarily through membership dues structured per the association's constitution (Satzung & Beiträge), supplemented by member-rate seminar fees and subsidiary service revenue. The association's leadership consists of Dr. Burkhard Siebert as Hauptgeschäftsführer (CEO) and a board elected on June 10, 2022 chaired by Stefan Roth (STRABAG AG) as President, with Helena Fischer heading the Regionalgruppe Nordhessen.
