“ISO certification demonstrates that our systems are robust, trusted and built for continual improvement. It’s a foundation for deeper partnerships with councils who want professional, values-aligned services for their community.”
The ISO certification recognises RRA’s adherence to international standards in:
- Workplace Health and Safety (ISO 45001:2018)

The ISO certifications were awarded to RRA after an independent audit by SAI Global.
