The present invention relates to a leveling control device for an elevator system which estimates a load torque applied to an axis of an alternating current motor on the basis of a torque current component and a rotation angle of the alternating current motor, while carrying out a level compensation operation, and which compensates the torque current component for the difference between the estimated load torque and the load compensation torque by an output signal from a load detector, which results in an improved speed control property in the level compensation operation of the elevator system. In the elevator system controlling a rotation speed of the alternating current motor by dividing the current of the motor into a torque component current and a field current component, the leveling control device includes: a load torque estimation unit estimating a load torque from the torque current component and the alternating current motor speed; and a switch and an adder computing a difference between the load torque estimated by the load torque estimation unit and the load compensation torque corresponding to an amount of the load detected by the load detector, and adding the torque difference to the torque current component according to a level compensation command.
