The article attempts to assess placements organised for the unemployed as seen from the perspective of employers in agricultural districts with a developed tourist function in the kujawsko-pomorskie province. The study covered 158 employers that organised placements in the time period 2008-2012. As a result, the thesis that employers consider placements as an effective instrument of labour market policies was verified positively. This result, however, cannot constitute a basis for broader generalizations, since net employment effectiveness analyses indicate that placements are characterized by a relatively low efficiency. A full as-sessment of the effectiveness of placements on local labour markets requires further evaluation studies.
