ABSTRACT
The aim of the article is to explain the essence of labour market security from the
perspective of labor migration. The authors try to answer the question whether issues
related to the subjective dimension of labour market security influence the decision on
emigration or staying in a particular country. The first part of the text discusses the
concept of labour market security, which has not yet been clearly specified on the basis
of Polish theoretical considerations. Particular attention has been paid to the elements
that make up a broad understanding of labour market security, namely job security,
employment security, income security and so-called combination security. The next part
presents the most frequently used methods of measuring individual elements that make up
the labour market security. The third part includes a review of current migration studies
that show the role of elements related to labour market security in the experiences of
labour migrants. Based on a broad review of the literature, the authors propose a dual
method of capturing labour market security, which can be guaranteed through guarantees
covering, among others, stabilizing the maintenance of the workplace, as well as through
flexibility related to the possibility of quickly finding employment or retraining.
