Edward Joseph Evans (April 20, 1871[1] – July 23, 1928) was an American labor unionist.

Born in Chicago, Evans became an electrician and joined the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, rising to become international vice-president of the union. He was regarded as being on the right-wing of the union movement. He championed technical education, and founded a union school for apprentices. He spoke out against Fordism and the specialization of work.[2][3]

Evans supported William Emmett Dever's successful campaign to become Mayor of Chicago, and was then appointed as the city's civil service commissioner. He regularly acted as a mediator for the American Federation of Labor in railroad and building trade disputes, and was the federation's delegate to the British Trades Union Congress in 1925.[2][3]
