The recent allegations of abuse at the restaurant of Michelin starred chef Tom Kitchin have highlighted the serious issues often suffered in Britain's hotels, pubs, and restaurants, many of them well known and famous.

This appalling behavior of systemic abuse, glorified by some so-called "celebrity chefs" and many others in the profession is vile and degrading and has no place in a modern working environment.

Some of these establishments are world famous and their chef's millionaires many times over but sit comfortably knowing that their Michelin status will project their brand and their image. They are fully and legally responsible for abusive behavior in their premises, no matter how many stars or rosettes they have.

It is now the time for Global Brands such as Michelin to call out these chefs who portray a healthy image to the public but are systemic abusers and run their "tribal" kitchens with all the management technique of a gang of street thugs.

People within hospitality are well aware of all the issues but are reluctant to criticise but now we believe that all sponsorship and accolades awarded in a brand's name should be rescinded upon proven evidence of abuse and that companies like Michelin and the AA should "call out" abuse in their name.

The Hospitality workers of the UK deserve better treatment, this is our place of work, and we should all feel safe and secure, no one goes to work in the 21st century to be abused and humiliated.
Abuse is abuse... call it out Michelin...CALL IT OUT
