That's a surprise, I actually thought rigging would pay more as there are so many people doing inspection. I'll be taking UTG first. So rigger stage 2 can be done at a training centre? From the website it says it should be done on the job so I got confused. I plan to get into stage rigging which is why I'm considering doing oil and gas rigging first since there aren't much events now but if the money is better in inspection that'd be a tough choice.

Hi I just passed my level 1 irata and my company will be sending me for NDT level 1. I want to specialise in rigging but am not sure how to go about it. Is Opito the gold standard in the industry? I understand stage 1 is just a test but how do you become stage 2, it's a bit confusing and can a stage 1 rigger get a job? Any other information will help, thanks in advance. Zaicliff

Hi! I'm currently a rope access technician in the Marine, oil and gas industry (1st job) . My contract is ending in 9 months. I'd like to specialise and focus on the entertainment industry as that's closer to my true self. What jobs are there? Pay rates? How to go about finding a job in the entertainment industry as a rope acces technician? Sustainability? Thanks in advance

That sucks! But expected because of covid. Less salary? In Singapore they pay a rope access rigger in the entertainment industry around $200 - $300/day depending on experience. Pretty good to me, I've only heard it from 1 person though. What kind of jobs are there besides rigging? Any certification I should look into as well?

I'll check with them so far Prudential has classed rope access as a level 3 occupation (1 lowest risk - 4 highest risk).

Haven't approached AIA, I'm leaning towards Great eastern for now but I'll check with AIA too and update here

I've approached various Singapore insurance companies (prudential, great eastern and NTUC). They catagorise jobs based on how dangerous it is so all major insurance company cover rope access technician. This post would be good for newcomers.

Hi I'm a 21 year old Singaporean who is starting his 1st day on the job this Monday. I've been searching insurance that will cover me in the event I get injured at work or outside of work, get chronic illness or mental illness in the long run. Can anyone advise me? I'm struggling to find 1 that is suitable.

Great article admin, definitely something rope access technicians need to think about especially the younger ones including myself, maybe there won't be rope access technicians in 30 years time or few. Who knows, I find there is a similar situation in my country that you might be interested to look into, Delivery drones, There are a lot of food delivery rider in my country as it is a good source of income for no education but the food delivery sector has been testing delivery drone, right now it's only to deliver to offshore islands where it is not possible by road but I feel that in 10 years
