The Canadian Injured Workers Alliance (CIWA) is a Canadian charity and advocacy organization for injured workers and occupational rehabilitation. Active in providing training, educational resources, and advocacy both federally and provincially, it is based on a national network of injured workers groups whose aim is to support injured workers and improve the occupational health and safety of workers across Canada. CIWA's stated objectives〔 include: * improving the occupational health and safety of workers in Canada. * working towards a just system of compensation, rehabilitation and re-employment in all provinces and territories of Canada. * providing a national forum for debating issues of concern to injured workers and their organizations at national conferences and at national board workshops. * gathering and share information with groups and individuals across Canada. The organization was founded in 1990 by Steve Mantis and other injured workers advocates including Wolfgang Zimmermann, after they organized a "National Conference on Re-Employment of Injured Workers" in Ottawa in June 1990.〔A History of CIWA http://www.ciwa.ca/content/history-ciwa〕 The conference passed a resolution to form a national organization representing a national network of injured worker organizations, ultimately to become CIWA. ==See also== * Workers' compensation * Occupational rehabilitation 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Canadian Injured Workers Alliance」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
