Using a mixed method approach, the thesis analyses macro-national policies (immigration and multiculturalism policies, employment equity legislation), as well as customised National Household Survey data (2011) and ABS census data (2011) to explore the labour market integration of culturally diverse skilled immigrants in Canada and Australia respectively. The research findings show that while the implementation of such policies have facilitated social and labour integration and to ensure equitable labour market outcomes, the integration of skilled immigrants has not been justifiably effective in both countries. The thesis outcomes are beneficial to academics, policy-makers as well as practitioners in the labour market.
