The aim of the research conducted within this paper was to analyze the impact of professional competence on the incidence of severe injuries at work in Serbia. The study covered 213 cases of severe injuries at work. Systematization of severe injuries at work was done based on the answers to the questions in the questionaire. The paper also provides an overview of legislation regarding occupational injuries and the professional training of workers for safe work. Specific data provided a parallel picture of the situation in Serbia and European countries. The results obtained indicate that professional competence is an essential factor when it comes to preventing work-related injuries, but does not guarantee that work-related injuries will not occur.
