The Alabama Workers’ Compensation Society (AWCS) has a mission with several goals, including:

• Maintaining the honor and dignity of the workers’ compensation profession in Alabama
• Promoting a feeling of goodwill, friendship, and cooperation between members, as well as professional and social interaction
• Facilitating the interchange of ideas and information on subjects of common interest
• Providing programs of general interest to workers’ compensation personnel
• Assisting members in improving themselves so that they can render more efficient service
• Bringing about more uniform treatment of common problems without  binding any member to adhere to a plan that is not in their company's best interest
• Fostering public goodwill
• Conducting the affairs of AWCS on a non-profit basis for the betterment of its entire membership

The Corporation's membership will comprise employees of insurance companies, adjusting companies, third-party administrators, self-insured employers, and members of the Alabama State Bar and the Alabama Medical Association.
