MTA recently won a tender to operate the Rail Industry Worker (RIW) Program for the ARA.The RIW Program is owned by the Australasian Railway Association (ARA) and is endorsed by all of its member organisations.

This ensures that work is carried out by qualified people and enhances overall safety on rail networks across Australia.The RIW Program has undergone a significant change, as it moved from service provider Pegasus to new service provider Metro Trains Australia on 28 June 2019.
