Abstract:The development of the digital economy has signifi cantly impacted migrant workers' employment. This study utilizes data from the Chinese Social Survey (2013-2021) and years of the "China Statistical Yearbook", constructing a multilevel Logistic regression model to verify the relationship between the level of digital economy and the quality employment of migrant workers. The fi ndings reveal that an elevated digital economy level promotes high-quality employment for migrant workers, though effects differ across various groups. The digital economy can moderate individual-level factors affecting high-quality employment, reducing employment quality disparities among different migrant worker groups. The development of the digital economy enhances high-quality employment through information symmetry and industrial upgrading effects. Its impact on high-quality employment markedly varies across regions and industries, especially being more pronounced among eastern regions and service sector workers. Thus, the study suggests there should be a signifi cant strengthening of digital economy infrastructure construction, reduce regional disparities in the quality of employment for migrant workers, and improve digital governance systems to promote high-quality employment for migrant workers.
