&lt;p&gt;I’d want quality measured continuously rather than treating initial vetting as enough. Attendance, completion quality, repeat-request rates, and manager feedback should affect who remains eligible for future shifts. The real test is whether the platform identifies declining performance early and removes or retrains workers before individual quality issues become a broader problem across the labor pool.&lt;/p&gt;
