Unprofessional Treatment of Promoter at Checkers Cornubia 13 June 2026

Incident at Checkers Cornubia, Umhlanga 13 June 2026 I am a regular promoter at Checkers Cornubia and have worked here since last year. Today I was promoting Castello cheese in the same aisle as another promoter for Lancewood cheese. The aisle manager told us one table had to be removed. I volunteered to pack up since I was scheduled to finish first. I went to the staff entrance to fetch my bag for the table. While returning, Security stopped me with my table and said the same manager instructed them to "chase me away". I explained there was no argument — I was simply complying and collecting my bag as agreed. The security guard was confused because he knows I’ve promoted here many times without issue. I reported this to the Store Manager. He called the aisle manager to his office. When I entered to give my side, the aisle manager told me to "go out". I was excluded from the discussion about MY incident. Afterward, the Store Manager told me to leave and have my agency manager call him. Issues: 1. No due process — I was removed without being heard, despite complying. 2. Humiliation — Being "chased away" by security in front of customers/staff for following instructions. 3. Exclusion — Barred from the office meeting about my own complaint. 4. Inconsistent management — I’ve worked here before with no problems. Promoters bring sales to Checkers. We deserve basic respect and fair treatment. I am posting this because many promoters face this but stay silent out of fear of being blacklisted. Checkers Cornubia, please investigate and train managers on how to handle promoters. We are not disposable. I request: A formal apology and assurance this won’t happen to other promoters. My agency will be contacting head office. #CheckersCornubia #PromoterRights #RespectAtWork
