Work disability management system
This is the first edition of CSA Z1011, Work disability management system. To facilitate its use and adoption, this Standard is aligned with the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) continual improvement model found in occupational health and safety management systems (OHSMS) such as CSA Z45001. This Standard is also aligned with the principles and best practices specified in all other publications under CSA Group's Z1000 suite of standards. It should be noted that, while Federal, Provincial, and Territorial legislation, along with human rights codes and privacy legislation, were considered during the development of this Standard, CSA Z1011 is designed as a management system standard. It is therefore based primarily on best practices for organizations to achieve their goals of optimal workforce engagement, given the health needs of workers as they arise, in order to minimize the possibility or impact of work disability. This Standard is considered suitable for use for conformity assessment within the stated scope of the Standard. This Standard was prepared by the Technical Committee on Work Disability Prevention Management System under the jurisdiction of the Strategic Steering Committee on Occupational Health and Safety, and has been formally approved by the Technical Committee. This Standard has been developed in compliance with Standards Council of Canada requirements for National Standards of Canada. It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group.
This Standard specifies the requirements for a WDM system that can be used by organizations to systematically manage their WDM activities.

This Standard is intended for use by organizations of all sizes, in all occupational sectors, and across all regions of Canada in the private, public, for profit and not-for-profit sectors.
The guiding principles that are the foundations for this Standard are
In this Standard, "shall" is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the Standard; "should" is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; and "may" is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the Standard. Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the text explanatory or informative material. Notes to tables and figures are considered part of the table or figure and may be written as requirements. Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (non-mandatory) to define their application.
