Abstract: 

This is a scope review that aims to map the underreporting of Work Accidents in the Information System on Notifiable Diseases. A search was performed in the databases: CAPES Thesis and Dissertations Catalog; Science Direct; Virtual Health Library and in the Cochhrane Lybrary and Embase databases, with thefollowing eligibility criteria: studies evaluating the notification of work accidents from 2017 to 2021. Mostof the studies found presented a quantitative methodology, with only one being nationwide. From thesestudies, it was noticed that the underreporting of work accidents is associated with the lack of awareness andtraining of health professionals regarding the importance of notification. Therefore, it is necessary to seek alternatives aimed at improving work processes, enabling conditions for professionals to perform thenotification in a timely and appropriate manner.
