UNFAIR SUSPENSION - BEMAWU OFFICIAL

Dear Keobokile,

Why have you not responded to my questions below?

The consultation must take place between my office and your office, not with Tsoenyane and in Bloemfontein.

I am involved with the SABC for the better part of 20 years now. Not once did any consultation took place in the region, but without exception at head office.

Urgently respond to our questions below, and our request that the consultation be scheduled in Johannesburg.

We once again submit to you that the intended suspension is nothing but union bashing and victimisation from Tsoenyane, because Mr. Namane is an union official, he blew the whistle on irregularities in that region and mainly because he filed a grievance against Tsoenyane . There are absolutely no grounds to suspend him. If there were any grounds and urgency to suspend him, why did Tsoenyane refused to meet last week and why only now, weeks after the meeting?

We furthermore request your and Top management’s intervention in this matter, as a matter of urgency to protect the SABC and it’s resources against further fruitless and wasteful expenditure. Should this suspension continue, particularly under these circumstances, BEMAWU will bring an urgent application in the Labour Court to stop this senseless suspension, obviously at the SABC’s cost. How can a person be suspended for asking questions in a rediffusion after being invited to ask questions?

Sincerely,

Hannes du Buisson
President : BEMAWU

Dear Keobokile,

We would once again like to put on record that the actions by Tsoenyane against one of our National Executive Members of BEMAWU is nothing but sheer victimisation because he is a union member. The SABC is about to spent again lots of money, which will be fruitless and wasteful expenditure.

This meeting that Vincent Tsoenyane is trying to arrange, must be organised by your Department. You have requested that all correspondence go via your office. Same must then apply to management, and Tsoenyane.

Could you kindly, but urgently intervene and schedule the meeting in Jhb, as is custom and practice.

We are still awaiting your reply to our previous letter in respect of the grievance.

Sincerely,
 
Hannes du Buisson
President
