Who are we?

The Industrial Rope Access Association of New Zealand exists to regulate and develop the rope access industry in New Zealand. We have a wide membership and are recognized by Occupational Safety and Health as the representative body for the industry.

Our objectives:

  • To promote a national approach to rope access standards development.

  • To offer a single, strong voice to the market and to authorities.

  • To be a strong voice within the industry to encourage all operators to follow the same methods and high standards.

  • To be the advisory body for the industry to maintain high standards of operation and safety.

  • To develop and institute uniform national competency standards.

January 2008: We are currently developing Best Practice Guidelines for Industrial Rope Access, for all interested parties, aiming for a public document within two years.
Please contact any of the committee members if you have anything to contribute to this process.
