Timely Payment Releases – Once a task is marked as complete and approved, funds are automatically unlocked and sent to the freelancer.

Clear Job Descriptions – Employers must provide detailed, realistic, and achievable task descriptions to prevent misunderstandings.
Respect Freelancer Rights – No unpaid trial work or requiring additional tasks outside the original agreement.
No Sudden Cancellations – Employers who frequently cancel active contracts without valid reasons may face penalties and lowered reputation scores.

No Fake Reviews – Employers must provide genuine, unbiased feedback based on actual work quality.
Fair Dispute Resolutions – If disputes arise, employers must engage in community-driven arbitration and accept final DAO governance decisions.
No Freelancer Blacklisting Without Cause – Employers cannot falsely accuse freelancers or attempt to exploit arbitration systems.
