The rapid development of digital technology has given birth to new employment patterns with the typical characteristics of network platforms and high flexibility, whose features make the labor relations recognition standards designed for the characteristics of traditional employment methods reflect the limitations and ambiguity of the system when applied to the new employment patterns, leading to the lack of occupational injury protection for employees in the new industry. The solution to this problem lies in adjusting and transforming the existing lagging institutional arrangements to adapt to the changes in the labor market in the new era. According to the experience of domestic and foreign systems, there are three possible protection paths: the work injury insurance model, the commercial insurance model, and the new occupational injury protection system model. Due to the limitations of the first two models, the third model is more in line with the current needs of occupational injury protection for employees in the new industry. In the specific system design, it is necessary to fully protect the realization of workers' rights and interests, as well as to maintain the enthusiasm for the economic development of the new industry, and to provide continuous, efficient, and enforceable legal system protection for the employees of the new industry.
