Eddie Ruthven, assistant director of the CITB-ConstructionSkills,
was this week expected to face a disciplinary hearing in the wake
of an internal investigation.
A statement from the board said: "During an internal investigation into issues surrounding the financial reporting of pre-paid vouchers for the health and safety test, three members of staff were suspended, as per CITB-ConstructionSkills protocol.
"The investigation is completed and the suspensions lifted on all three staff members."
It is understood that Ruthven was suspended for two weeks, during which time he was not allowed on CITB premises or to talk with any member of staff.
Having returned to work, he is said to still face accusations of gross misconduct. It is believed that there are other, deeper administrative and personal issues at stake than those mentioned in the board statement.
CITB-ConstructionSkills declined to comment.
