Important safety bulletin on fraudulent NRC Certificates
19 December 2025
The ABTT has been notified that a fraudulent National Rigging Certificate (NRC) has been in circulation, with an individual falsely claiming to hold the NRC.
Those who have achieved their NRC are highly respected in the work that they do and it is important that the high standards set by the certification are preserved.
This matter is extremely serious and relevant parties are acting with urgency to ensure that this issue is resolved promptly and permanently for the safety of all.
Please circulate this information to those who employ NRC riggers.
If you are approached by anyone new or work with anyone that you’re not sure about, you can find out if they are current NRC cardholders through the PLASA website.
Please note that some certified NRC riggers choose not to be displayed on the website. However, you can also contact PLASA directly to check that they are current NRC cardholders.
