If you don't do all of the job you're hired to do, why should you get paid for it. In this case, the assignor is telling the officials what the expectations are and what they'll get paid for doing only part of the job he's hiring them for. I can't see how this is a problem if it is both made known and consistently enforced.

Under this logic: If this assignor is evaluating your game and decides that you missed calls, or were out of position on a rotation, weak on a signal mechanic or any other reason; you may be paid less or not at all since these duties are part of the job. Consistency with this logic would certainly add a few extra bucks in this association or assignor's pocket since the association is getting paid for the game having been officiated.
Mistakes could become very expensive for the independent contractor and lucrative for the association or assignor.
