’No one will hire me’: Firm fires WFH employee Suzie Cheikho after 18 yrs based on laptop activity using keystroke tech

Suzie Cheikho, a remote worker who was fired from her job at Australia's largest insurance company, Insurance Australia Group, has spoken out over a year after losing her job. According to a Hindustan Times report, Cheikho, who had been with IAG for 18 years, was terminated in February 2023 after the company used keystroke technology to monitor her work-from-home performance. According to the company, Cheikho's laptop activity, including late logins, early logouts, and low keystroke counts, suggested she was not performing her duties adequately. In a now-deleted TikTok video, Cheikho expressed her distress over the situation, saying, “This has never happened to me before, and for what?” She also revealed that she is now worried she may never find a job again and is facing online harassment since her story went viral.
