Occupational Safety and Health Forum

The task of the Occupational Safety and Health Forum is to ensure early and active participation of the expert trade public in the development and updating of the Joint German OSH Strategy and to advise the NOSHC accordingly.

The Occupational Safety and Health Forum was already established in 2006 and, since then, has met annually; the statutory basis can be found in the German Accident Insurance Modernisation Act (UVMG).

Expert representatives of the umbrella organisations of the employers and workers, the professional and industrial associations, science, the health and pension insurance funds, institutions in the sector of safety and health at work as well as bodies which help to promote employability are to participate in the Occupational Safety and Health Forum.

You will find more details on the individual occupational safety and health forums on the German website.
