SA Federation of Trade Unions (Saftu) general secretary Zwelinzima Vavi has been given until the end of business on Thursday to give reasons why he should not be suspended.
The decision was taken at a meeting of the national office-bearers of the trade union federation on Monday.
In a letter of intention to suspend sent to Vavi he is accused of serious misconduct and misbehaviour which warrants that he be investigated and possibly face disciplinary action.
“This therefore, serves to inform you that you are requested to give reasons why you should not be place under precautionary suspension whilst the investigations take place. “The investigations will, among other things, be about alleged violations of the constitution, breach of administration and finance policy, and disrespecting and undermining constitutional structural decisions and resolution.”
The nature of the misconduct Vavi is accused with was not clear at the time of writing and Chavalala's phone rang unanswered.In 2013, he was accused by a Cosatu co-worker of sexual misconduct in what Vavi described as a consensual “brief intercourse took place while we were standing”.
