CIWA's stated objectives[4] include:
improving the occupational health and safety of workers in 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.[5] The conference passed a resolution to form a national organization representing a national network of injured worker organizations, ultimately to become CIWA.[6]
