Pulp and paper industry and labor developments in Brazil

Overview

The pulp and paper industry in Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil, continues to see activity through technical events and workforce expansion. The 14th Cellulose and Paper Week, promoted by the Brazilian Technical Association of Cellulose and Paper (ABTCP) at a Suzano facility, features technical presentations from companies like Albany International. These sessions focus on high-performance process solutions, such as adapting press felts for high-speed cellulose drying machines to enhance operational efficiency.

Suzano is actively expanding its workforce in the region. Following the announcement of 17 vacancies in Ribas do Rio Pardo and Três Lagoas covering forestry, technical, and maintenance roles, the company has also opened a selection process for trainee operators. These trainee positions, which include forest machine and crane operators, are available in Três Lagoas, Ribas do Rio Pardo, Água Clara, and Bataguassu. These roles are offered via temporary contracts lasting up to three months, with the potential for permanent employment based on performance.

This localized hiring aligns with broader national labor trends reported by the Ministry of Labor and Employment’s Novo Caged. Data from the first half of 2026 indicates that young people aged 18 to 24 comprised 33.17% of all temporary admissions in Brazil, totaling 178,186 hires—a 1.8% increase from the previous year. Experts note that temporary work is increasingly serving as a vital entry point for young professionals entering the market.
