In modern mining complexes, the amount of available information on the performance of occupational health and safety systems is constantly increasing. Measurement and evaluation of system performance, as well as the need to develop a better measurement model, arises primarily due to necessity of the improvement of occupational health and safety. The scope of the model aiming to maturity analysis of safety performance measurement, which was applied in the research whose results are presented in this paper, included the performance measurement practice, the commitment and culture of performance measurement and the use of measurement results. In addition to the three basic topics mentioned, an assessment related to the state of the occupational health and safety system was added. As a result of the application of the proposed model, an overall maturity score was obtained. This paper presents the results of the maturity analysis of occupational health and safety system performance measurement in the company TE-KO "Kostolac", which identifies areas that will be given special attention in the future in terms of improving the management of occupational health and safety.

Occupational safety is the prevention and elimination of dangers and hazards that can cause workplace injuries, occupational and other diseases and damage to the employees’ health. According to the modern concept, it implies constant monitoring of the situation with the aim to explore ways and design measures for the improvement of an occupational health and safety system. An effective way to monitor the situation in an occupational health and safety system is to define performance or success indicators, whereas, in practice, the most commonly used tool is occupational safety indicators. Indicators of work-related injuries can be absolute and relative. Since absolute indicators do not provide a realistic image of the state of workplace safety, we shall use relative indicators. A relative indicator of occupational safety often used is the injury frequency index. This indicator was obtained as the ratio of the number of injuries and effective working hours over the observation period or the number of employees in the production and business system. Also, the same indicator can be calculated in relation to the volume of production.In the forestry sector, where occupational injuries are frequent and often fatal, monitoring indicators of occupational injuries allows us to see the movement of the observed phenomenon (occupational safety) in a certain period, and also to determine the general trend of its movement (decline or growth) and most importantly to develop preventive measures. In addition, the analysis of workplace injuries using the indicators enables the comparison of occupational safety in business systems from the same activity and, thus, foster the transfer of know-how and good practice from the systems with high levels of occupational safety.
