This is definitely an 'added' risk they need to qualify - how they will stop any verification from leaking private images.
One would hope that such checks should be minimal and therefore performed by suitably qualified (and equally audited) personnel. As you allude, it is more likely that such work is outsourced in the same way that the manufacturing of the phone is.

It probably does not surprise that these devices have recorded sensitive information like bank details and passwords, or have recorded instances of domestic abuse which employees have been forced to listen to [1]. It absolutely wouldn't surprise me to learn that Apple will have a team of people reviewing everything that gets flagged, who will get to see everyone's private photos and also probably be exposed to real CSAM.
