The discussion of sustainability issues is taking shape in organizations with the search for sustainable organizational development; with the consumption of ecological products, making the industries implement their activities and their production processes with more effective and efficient management policies and practices. These market demands are currently changing the concept and sustainable strategies that the organization develops; in this context, people management plays a crucial role in actions, since it is the management of policies and practices planned and implemented by people management tend to help in the desirable position in the level of organizational sustainability. The theme studied deserves further reflection in academia and organizations. This paper seeks to understand how the strategic and sustainable models of people management are aligned and the levels of organizational sustainability of two pulp and paper industries. This purpose, a multiple case study was carried out in these two industries, which are configured in companies that are restructuring strategies aimed at implementing sustainability for the best organizational performance. In order to achieve the general objective, it was necessary to conduct a wide bibliographic search, with semi-structured interviews with directors and employees – strategic and tactical –, in addition to unsystematic observation and analysis of the companies' documents on the websites. Through content analysis, it was possible to verify that the levels of sustainability of industries are related to the people management model adopted to manage companies.
