In this case, the lack of such an option is obviously a flaw in the assessment system.

How to fix that? Major political issue, I suppose.

Ebay solved this decades ago. You can rate the seller and product separately. adding 2-3 ratings won't fix everything of course, but it would be a start.

I suppose it is political because these companies rarely want accurate assessment of their labor to begin with. They want any justification needed to lay anyone off at any time while minimizing legal liability.
