🏁 JRR is off to the Mountain!

Keep an eye out for one of our own at this year's Bathurst 1000: Lachlan, a 3rd year apprentice from our Orange workshop, has been selected for an incredible opportunity with the Penrite Racing Supercars team. He'll spend 4 days in the pits working hands-on with the crew, right in the thick of one of Australia's biggest motorsport events.

Lachlan was selected through a program run by our friends at Penrite Oil. Opportunities like this don't come around often - a huge thank you to Penrite for what is sure to be a career highlight for Lachlan.

Good luck to Lachlan and Penrite Racing this weekend! 🏆

Safety isn't just a priority — it's a commitment. 🦺

Our compliance team spent 16 September at WCRA’s Safety Summit in Western Sydney. The topics were wide ranging and insightful: battery risks, overhead infrastructure, emerging tech, fit-for-work practices, and the ongoing drive toward zero harm.

There were some great discussions and lots to bring home and implement. At JRR we don’t just see safety as a mandatory ‘have to do’ but an opportunity for practical ‘want to do’ conversations: how can we create a working environment where we all feel motivated to keep each other safe?

The networking aspect was a highlight - connecting with peers in similar roles to share knowledge and strategies.

Thanks to WCRA for hosting such an educational event (and for some great trivia prizes that we won!)
