Abstract The rapid development of the platform economy in the digital age has given rise to a new employment model for platform gig workers, giving them more choices. However, it has also led to difficulties in determining labor relations and a lack of protection for gig workers’ legitimate rights and interests. How to deal with the atypical development of labor relations under the gig economy platform has become an urgent problem that needs to be solved. This article selects 18 effective cases of labor relationship confirmation disputes among foreign-related salespersons on the Judgments Document Network in 2023 and conducts an in-depth comparative analysis of positive and negative judgments. It is found that under the background of the platform gig economy, employers avoid signing labor contracts, introduce third-party evaluations to transfer conflicts, abuse algorithm technology to enhance labor control, reconstruct labor connection methods to weaken labor relations, avoid corporate social responsibility, and trigger a series of normative application crises. In this regard, the algorithmic control of the digital age should be used to reinterpret the judgment core of gig workers’ freedom of choice. The judgment criteria for personality attributes should be reconstructed from three aspects: identity attributes, algorithmic dominance attributes, and labor content attributes. The recognition requirements for economic attributes should be improved from the perspective of labor value acquisition and labor income sources under algorithmic dominance. The value attribution criteria for labor relationship judgment should be constructed from three dimensions: economic value creation, data value creation, and brand value creation.
