Eskom’s board says it supports CEO André de Ruyter in suspending the Tutuka and Kendal power station managers pending disciplinary inquiries

Power station managers are being taken to task as the country endures yet another day of load-shedding. Picture: SUNDAY TIMES.

SA was set to endure yet another day of rolling blackouts with stage 3 load-shedding scheduled from 8am until 10pm on Friday. “It is for this reason the board has come out strongly in support of group CEO André de Ruyter in his action yesterday morning of summarily suspending the Tutuka and Kendal power station managers pending disciplinary inquiries. Further interventions are ongoing at the Kriel and Duvha power stations.”

Eskom said it had engaged with other power station managers to “ensure the previous culture of weak consequence management will no longer be the norm and will no longer be tolerated”.
