An arbitration meeting between the SABC's suspended news head Snuki Zikalala and the broadcaster's management will be held next week, the SABC said on Wednesday.

Spokesman Kaizer Kganyago said the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA) hearing would be held on Monday.

Zikalala applied for a hearing against what he termed as "an unfair labour practice", following his suspension by SABC group Chief Executive Officer Dali Mpofu in May.

Mpofu had alleged that Zikalala had leaked confidential company documents.
