Helene Davis-Whyte (born 1956) is a Jamaican trade union activist and the general secretary of the Jamaica Association of Local Government Officers (JALGO), which represents 5,000 workers in local and national government and quasi-government agencies in Jamaica.

==Early life==
Helene Davis was one of four children. Her father was a businessman, and she says her childhood was a prosperous and happy one. She attended Queens High School in Kingston. But while in her Sixth form, her father's business began to fail. She dropped out of school to go to work and support the family. "Sometimes I left home without breakfast; I never had the lunch money and when I got home, I was not sure that I would see dinner," she has said.〔Rose, "Helene Davis-Whyte - Enjoying the Union," ''Jamaica Gleaner,'' 7 August 2007.〕
She had her first child at the age of 19. Although unmarried, she moved in with a sister (who was also a single parent) to make ends meet.〔
In 1995 she married Frederick Whyte, a former commissioner of the Jamaica Fire Brigade, and had a second child.〔
