Summary/Abstract: The evolution of the approach to labour market policy in Poland, as well as increasing expenditures on active labour market programmes, have initiated a public debate on the effectiveness and purposefulness of financing Active Labour Market Policies (ALMP). Therefore, the aim of this paper is to assess the regional effectiveness of selected instruments of labour market policy undertaken previously and an analysis of the levels and structure of the Labour Fund resources dedicated to funding these instruments. The efficiency of activating methods is assessed with the use of employment and cost measures. Meanwhile, the expenditure analysis is based on available statistical data. The analysis of selected regional active labour market indicators has confirmed the inequalities between Poland's regional labour markets. The allocation of public funds was the most effective in well-developed regions with stable labour market conditions and high investment attractiveness.
