ZS BG BAU is part of the "Berufsgenossenschaft der Bauwirtschaft" (The statutory accident and insurance prevention institution in the building trade in Germany).

The role of these "Berufsgenossenschaften" has a long tradition in Germany. Because of rapid changes in social, economic and technical conditions in Germany the field of occupational safety is also in a phase of radical transformation. In order to meet the challenges arising from these changes the "Berufsgenossenschaften" will have to work in new, modern ways.

The formation of the "Zentrum für Sicherheitstechnik" (Centre for Safety Technology) in October 1992 was an important step in this direction.
