The Association of Workers’ Compensation Boards of Canada (AWCBC) was founded in 1919 as a non-profit organization to facilitate the exchange of information between Workers’ Compensation Boards and Commissions across the country. Today, it has 12 Members representing each provincial/territorial jurisdiction responsible for administering workers’ compensation legislation in Canada.
