WHS compliance auditing and safety management systems for Katherine businesses — with ISO 45001 readiness and broader WHS consulting from the same senior team.
Spire Safety provides WHS compliance auditing, safety management systems, ISO 9001 / 14001 / 45001 readiness and general WHS consulting to businesses in Katherine and across the Big Rivers region of the Northern Territory — pastoral and horticultural operations, road train and freight operators, civil and building contractors, rural workshops and the service providers supporting surrounding communities.
Katherine work is spread out and seasonal. Crews travel long distances, cattle and plant handling sit alongside heavy vehicle movements, and the wet season changes what access and emergency response actually look like. Remote and isolated work procedures, journey management, mobile plant separation, heat illness controls and contractor verification carry the most weight — and are what a regulator examines first.
We are Brisbane-based and deliver remote-first. The bulk of a Katherine engagement — gap assessment, system build, documentation, audit preparation and review — is delivered offsite, so travel doesn't inflate the quote. We have worked in every state and territory and can attend a Katherine site where a physical walk-through genuinely changes the outcome. Where it doesn't, we don't charge you for the trip.
Every engagement is led by a senior consultant. You deal directly with the person scoping the work, writing the report and presenting the findings.
Independent audits against the WHS Act, Regulations and Codes of Practice — with a written report you can act on.
Practical safety management systems built around your operation — not template dumps.
Readiness for ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 — gap review, documentation and audit support.
General WHS advisory, incident support and project-based safety help — on-site or remote.
A short walkthrough of how our independent WHS compliance audits are scoped, run and reported for Northern Territory operations.
Katherine engagements are led by Tanya Protasova — 10 years across construction and engineering, specialising in AS/ISO-aligned management systems — alongside Nathan Owen, who brings 15 years across WHS and HSEQ, postgraduate qualifications in WHS and business, and a tertiary teaching background that shows in how findings are written and explained. On larger jobs Arley Serrano supporting QA/QC, inspections and audit documentation.
Recent and ongoing engagements include Australia-wide clients such as Greyhound Australia, Australian Energy Market Operator, Total Tools, Bluecare, Shapland Swim Schools, St Barbara.
