Dr Stephan Fasshauer has been designated as new Director General of the German Social Accident Insurance (DGUV). He will succeed Dr Stefan Hussy, who is to retire at the end of June 2025. Dr Fasshauer was simultaneously designated as Director of KAN’s supporting body, the Association for the Promotion of Occupational Safety in Europe (VFA). He was formerly Director of Deutsche Rentenversicherung Bund (the German retirement pensions insurance fund), and therefore has extensive experience in the sphere of social insurance.
