By designing protection measures, the occupational safety system should provide the best possible working conditions for all employees in every economic activity, including in mining production. The analysis of occupational injuries in a certain period of time should enable the collection of data on certain etiological specificities of injuries and in this way ensure the selection of adequate preventive measures of occupational safety. Monitoring the indicators of occupational injuries within the analysis, which is presented in this paper, provides information about the change in the state of working conditions and enables the determination of the general tendency of its decreasing or increasing change.
One-factor ANOVA analysis was applied to determine the variability of the results within the established groups of selected etiological factors and to determine the impact on the observed occurrence of the number of occupational injuries in the mining company. The application of Pareto analysis to determine the most dominant causes of occupational injuries is of crucial importance for determining the direction of action of preventive actions and corrective measures in the occupational safety system.
