Abstract

With the rapid development of the high-tech society, China has entered an era dominated by digital technology, which has put forward higher requirements for the quality of labor. The low-skilled labor force, due to the limitations of their own cultural capital and social capital, lacks opportunities to access and learn about digital resources. In the process of upward mobility, they face social integration dilemmas, including economic, cultural, behavioral, and identity integration difficulties. To stimulate the subjectivity of low-skilled labor, social work, with the principle of helping others, can intervene in the low-skilled labor group from the national, community, and family levels, fully utilizing the convenience of digital technology to assist them in better integrating into society.
