The German Statutory Accident Insurance Company (Deutsche Gesetzliche Unfallversicherung (DGUV)), which was created in 2007 by the merger of Hauptverband der gewerblichen (HVBG) and Bundesverband der Unfallkassen (BUK), will launch a new specialized periodical in January 2009 with the title DGUV Forum. This will replace the publication Die BG, which was started in 1949.

The new journal will reflect the merger of the two entities forming DGUV. It will cover a broader subject area than its predecessor, and will have a circulation of 5500. Subscription for a year (10 issues) will cost € 96 + postal charges. Please contact the following organization for orders:
