Abstract

With the digital economy thriving, there are gaps and problems in protecting the occupational rights and interests of the delivery man that should be solved urgently. Under Institutional Analysis and Development (IAD) framework, some deeper reasons lead to risks about safety, health, stability, and insurance, including digitized involution of platform companies, evaluation replacement in social networks, the dilemma of livelihood, and problems of social security coverage. In order to remove occupational risks and protect the occupational rights and interests of the delivery man effectively, the government and forms should upgrade working conditions and workflow, improve wages and provide training, design evaluation mechanism, and industry guidelines, strengthen the basic social insurance, and occupational injury insurance exploration.
