Resumo:	The state of Espírito Santo stands out in the mineral sector as Brazil's leading exporter of ornamental stones. Despite the sector's economic importance, there is a notable lack of scientific research focused on this area, particularly regarding occupational safety. In this context, the primary objective of this study is to analyze the profile of occupational accidents in mining activities in Espírito Santo from 2017 to 2021. This analysis is crucial as it can serve as a foundation for guiding future studies and initiatives that promote best practices in health and safety. The methodology involved a case study approach, based on the collection and analysis of occupational accident notifications using public data from the "SmartLab" platform. The research results allowed for the identification of key findings, including the geographic distribution of occupational accidents, economic sectors with the highest number of notifications, the most common injuries in the mining sector, the most affected body parts, and the primary causal agents. Mining activities were found to have the highest number of fatalities compared to other sectors in the state, with a rising trend in fatal accidents over time. This highlights the urgent need for targeted actions and awareness campaigns to educate stakeholders in the sector, aiming to reduce the number of accidents.
