ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the Brazilian legislation applied to occupational health, as regards the diseases embodied in the acronyms RSI (Repetitive Strain Injury) and WMSD (Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders) as work or professional diseases. This analysis allowed to perform the historical evolution of legislation concerning the issue, noting that the state of the art of regulation on RSI-WMSD is anchored in specific regulation present in the Normative Instruction 98/2003, that establishes the diagnostic criteria and classification of RSI-WMSD. It was concluded that according to the existing legislation in Brazil, the pathologies related to RSI-WMSD are considered as work diseases and their legal effects are similar to the work-related accidents.
