Abstract
With the rapid development of the Internet, people's consumption concepts are constantly changing, and the development of the takeaway industry has ushered in a new era. Due to the increasing market size and the growing number of delivery personnel in the food delivery industry, disputes between delivery personnel and platform enterprises are growing. The work style of food delivery personnel in the food delivery process is becoming increasingly flexible, and the employment methods of platform enterprises are showing diversified characteristics. It is necessary to conduct research on the recognition of employment relationships among food delivery personnel and ultimately provide suggestions for improving their recognition rules. The paper first elaborates on the necessity of determining the employment relationship of food delivery personnel, explores the problems in determining the employment relationship of food delivery personnel, and finally proposes suggestions for refining labor legal norms and their implementation methods, improving the civil law contract employment system related to food delivery personnel, and establishing industry standards for determining the employment relationship of food delivery personnel.
