In recent years, the digital economy industry in China has developed vigorously, gradually becoming an important supporting force to promote China's economy, and the development of the digital economy has also affected China's labor market. This paper focuses on the impact of digital economy development on China's labor employment and corresponding strategies. First, this paper cites relevant data to clarify the significant role of the digital economy in economic growth, as well as the current status and structural contradictions in labor employment. Subsequently, it analyzes the impacts of the development of the digital economy on labor employment from both positive and negative perspectives. Positively, it creates job opportunities, enhances employment efficiency, and improves workers' skills. On the negative side, it gives rise to structural unemployment, exacerbates employment inequality, and brings to the fore challenges related to rights protection. Finally, it proposes measures such as strengthening digital skills training and promoting industrial integration, emphasizing the need for multiple measures to achieve a positive interaction between the two.
