"Exams are currently underway" meaning Exams are currently being taken and/or offered
The building project is underway
My dinner party is underway.
Her training for the marathon is underway.
Working is not a synonym. Synonyms would be "in progress" (My dinner party is in progress) or "has commenced" (Her training for the marathon has commenced)

"Under way" is similar to saying "in progress" - I wouldn't use "working" as a synonym.
Like:
Students are busy because exams are under way.
Building construction is under way.
