Hi
I am using NWS, currently I've set up a form and I want to limit my workers.
I recognize them by worker ID field, they write the number.
Now I want them:
1. To watch their own submission, but only their own and not others.
2. Limit them to add only one item, I do not want them to add themselves more than once
I've given myself complete control and I can watch everyone submission.
Any ideas?

I've accomplished this in the past by hiding/disabling the submit button on the form if a lookup finds an item in the list that was created by the current logged in user. Granted, this wouldn't stop them from using Quick Edit mode, but it's worked when I needed a similar solution.

I also did the same. And I displayed a label if the lookup was positive that they need to edit their submission, not add a new one.
Another customer wanted a different approach, here I added to the workflow to check if they had made a submission before, and if so the workflow deleted the old one, and just kept the new one.
When it comes to only seeing the items you have contributed with in a SharePoint-list, check this out:
https://sharepointmaven.com/how-to-enable-item-level-permissions-in-sharepoint/
You could also manage the item-permissions with a workflow.
1. To watch their own submission, but only their own and not others.
configure item level permissions so that only dedicated list of users and/or groups can see respective items
2. Limit them to add only one item, I do not want them to add themselves more than once
configure ''worker ID' list field to "Enforce unique values"
