The main association of commercial professional associations e. V. ( HVBG ) was the central association and the representation of interests of the commercial employers' liability insurance associations from 1887 to 2007 . On July 1, 2007, it merged with the Federal Association of Accident Insurance Funds to form the central association of German accident insurance institutions .
tasks
The main association of commercial trade associations "promotes the common tasks of its members for the benefit of the insured and the company, especially in the areas of occupational safety, the prevention of occupational accidents, occupational diseases and work-related health hazards, first aid, rehabilitation and development social security law and the rationalization of administrative work. "
In addition, he carried out coordinating tasks, such as the central statistics of the commercial trade associations or the implementation of the general burden sharing and the special burden sharing for the so-called GDR old burdens , which the trade associations had taken over from the accident insurance of the GDR on the basis of the unification agreement . He was also the central service provider for the DALE-UV process, with which doctors can transmit digital illness and accident reports to the trade associations.
organization
Like other associations of the German social insurance institutions , the HVBG was an organization under private law with the legal form of a registered association . In contrast to its association members, the commercial professional associations, the HVBG was not a public corporation . The organs were the board of directors and the general assembly.
The main association originally had its seat in Sankt Augustin . After the headquarters were moved to Berlin, the office remained in Sankt Augustin. The association had six regional associations, which remained as legally dependent organizational structures even after the successor association DGUV was founded.
The HVBG was responsible for the following six institutions:
- Professional association center for safety and health (BGZ) in Sankt Augustin
- Employer's Liability Insurance Association Institute for Work and Health (BGAG) in Dresden ( geo )
- Trade Association Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (BGIA) in Sankt Augustin
- Trade association research institute for occupational medicine (BGFA) in Bochum
- Professional Association Academy (BGA) in Hennef
- HVBG examination & advice in Sankt Augustin
In the health and work initiative , the HVBG worked across social insurance schemes with the BKK Federal Association and the AOK Federal Association for Occupational Safety and Health Promotion.
history
The association was founded on June 27, 1887 as an association of German employers' liability insurance associations in Berlin by 32 employers liability insurance associations. According to the ideas of the founding members, the association should primarily serve the exchange of opinions and experiences and be the mouthpiece of the newly established statutory accident insurance . However, he was not granted too much independence. The professional colleagues did not want to restrict the self-government they had just gained in favor of a strong umbrella organization. The Association of German Professional Associations was therefore founded in the legal form of an unregistered and therefore unincorporated association . Association membership was open to all professional associations. The BG association's budget was modest; the work in the association was done on a voluntary basis. It was characterized by the exchange of experiences and the coordination of uniform procedures in the implementation of statutory accident insurance.
In 1921 - all commercial trade associations were now members of the BG Association - it was reorganized: it was entered in the Berlin Register of Associations under the new name of the Main Association of Commercial Trade Associations and thus acquired legal capacity . At the same time, a full-time chairman was appointed.
The Second World War and the division of Germany also had an impact on the main association: with the dissolution of the employers' liability insurance associations based in East and Central Germany, a large number of the association's members were lost. In 1948 the HVBG ceased most of its work in Berlin and relocated its activities to the newly established Bonn office.
Association with the Federal Association of Accident Insurance Funds
On July 1, 2007, the HVBG and the Federal Association of Accident Insurance Funds merged to form the joint umbrella association of the German Statutory Accident Insurance (DGUV). The DGUV is based in Berlin.
