<p>The main goals of this research are to determine the developmental tendency of salmonellosis in the Republic of North Macedonia and to determine the index of dynamics and the rate of decline/increase of salmonellosis in the Republic of North Macedonia. The research covers the period from 01.01.2012 until 31.12.2022. The data used to implement this study were obtained from the Institute of Public Health of the Republic of North Macedonia. The research included 2711 subjects who were sick with salmonellosis from 2012 to 2022. The following statistical methods of work are used: linear trend, dynamic index with a constant base, dynamic index with a variable base (chain index), rate of decline, and rate of increase. The results of the study suggest that in the period 2012-2022, the highest number of patients (n=373) and the highest incidence (18/100000) of salmonellosis were registered in 2018, and the lowest in 2020 (n=119, I=5.8/100000). From the linear trend values, it can be concluded that salmonellosis in the Republic of North Macedonia shows a decreasing tendency. The biggest increase in salmonellosis in the Republic of North Macedonia was in 2015 by 71% compared to 2014. The biggest decrease in salmonellosis in the Republic of North Macedonia was in 2020 by 48% compared to 2019. From the study, it can be concluded that food operators and manufacturers are observing the procedures of the HACCP control system for food safety, leading to a possible decrease in salmonellosis.</p>
