In most cases I've come across the problem a sample of work is checked (or even double marked) across markers (and commonly within scripts from a single marker) to check consistency. In addition to acting as a check on consistency it also makes it fairly easy to spot systematic differences between markers (e.g., the markers tend to differ on very poor scripts).
