With the increase in global spatial mobility the importance of migration policy
(including integration policy) is increasing day by day, both in developed countries and
new market economies. In the course of the research on migration policy various measures
were constructed. Even though the particular measures relate to different areas of
migration policy, they do not refer to the effectiveness of migration policy. The aim of
this study is to assess the effectiveness of the integration of immigrants into the labour
market in the countries that belong to the Organisation for Economic Co-Operation
and Development (OECD) and to analyse the relationships between these effects and
the integration policy adopted by the individual countries. The TOPSIS (Technique for
Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution) method and the CRITIC (Criteria
Importance Through Intercriteria Correlation) method were used in the research. The
results indicate that the highest effectiveness of migration policy in terms of integration
of immigrants into the labour market was reported in the following OECD countries:
Iceland, Switzerland and New Zealand. The results also suggest that the higher the level
of integration policy restrictiveness in a given country, the worse the effects in terms
of integration of immigrants into the labour market that were noticed by this country.
