Provided is an electric-motor control device, including: a command value calculation unit configured to calculate a command value directed to an electric motor based on a command value and a given moment-of-inertia value; a difference detection unit configured to detect a difference between the moment-of-inertia value and an estimated moment-of-inertia value; a moment-of-inertia value change unit configured to change at least anyone of the moment-of-inertia value and a correction coefficient for the moment-of-inertia value based on the difference; and a change restriction unit configured to restrict a change in the moment-of-inertia value or the correction coefficient when at least any one of the moment-of-inertia value and the correction coefficient is changed to decrease by the moment-of-inertia value change unit.
