Since its inception, IWCA has written an American National Standard Institute (ANSI) standard, the I-14.1 Window Cleaning Safety Standard which is referenced not only by building owners and property managers, but also the Occupational Safety and Health Association (OSHA). The I-14.1 Window Cleaning Safety Standard is the only standard of its type that is specifically for those in the window cleaning industry.

year, IWCA holds an annual convention and trade show for professionals working in all facets of the window cleaning industry, from high-rise and route/residential window cleaners to those who manufacture goods and services for window cleaning. Additionally, the association offers four regional safety trainings per year to give companies the opportunity to have their employees professionally safety training in order to stay safe.
