This article has as its main objective to identify the elements of knowledge management within the scope of the organizational structure of a metallurgy industry. In order to reach the proposed objective, a qualitative research with a case study was carried out in a metallurgy industry of the city of Ponta Grossa. The data were collected through a semi-structured interview. The research evinced a top-down organizational structure in which the upper management creates the basic concepts so that the lower levels can implement them. However, this structure is ineffi cient in stimulating the necessary dynamic interaction for the creation of the organizational knowledge. As to the organizational structure compatible with knowledge management in the company, the data show a defi ciency in team work, with little delegation of responsibilities. This metallurgy industry must, therefore, try to strengthen other elements in the organizational structure, implanting a more fl exible and agile organizational structure in order to be able to react to market changes.
