• Resumen

  • This paper examines mechanisms for resolving legal disputes and ensuring compliance in corporate human-resource management from the perspective of the interplay between Chinese company law and labour law. Focusing on such practical problems as overlapping and conflicting legal applications and the ambiguous classification of platform labour, it proposes targeted solutions—including a tiered employment-rule framework and a labour-compliance committee system—grounded in Chinese court decisions and existing institutions. Drawing on the employment-status criteria set out in the EU Platform Work Directive (EU) 2024/2831, the study also offers international reference points for refining China’s regulatory regime. The research seeks to clarify legal boundaries, facilitate enterprise compliance, and foster harmonious labour-capital relations.
