Beschreibung des Produkts

The Institute for Work [&] Health (IWH) is an independent, not-for-profit research organization based in Toronto, Canada. Our goal is to protect and improve the health and safety of working people by providing useful, relevant research in two key areas: (1) preventing work-related injury and illness, and (2) promoting recovery and work functioning following injury and illness. Our work provides impartial, evidence-based guidance to government policy-makers, health and safety associations, workers and employers, occupational health [&] safety professionals, disability management professionals and clinicians. The main vehicle for sharing this guidance is our website.

Ziel und Zweck

Evidence-based health and safety policies, programs and practices are crucial to improving the protection of workers and reducing the incidence of job-related injuries and illnesses. Reliable and valid research is the backbone of this evidence base. Therefore, research organizations need to make their findings widely available to stakeholders who are looking for the best evidence. An accessible and inviting website is one of the best ways to do this.

Employers; workers and worker representatives; occupational health and safety, disability management and workers' compensation professionals; clinicians; workplace health, safety and disability policy-makers in Canada
