title: [Reporting occupational disease. A system ready for revision].
abstract: The article reviews the system of reporting occupational disease and the reporting pattern over the last ten years. The available information seems to indicate a very low reported incidence of occupational disease. Possible reasons are given. There seems to be a need to simplify our present system and make it more user-friendly. There is also a general need to inform and motivate various user groups, especially general practitioners. In addition, greater collaboration between occupational and public health services may help to increase the reporting of occupational disease in Norway.
