Cond Nast has suspended Bon Apptit video editor Matt Hunziker, the publisher confirmed to Business Insider.

Cond Nast Entertainment president Oren Katzeff said during a June 25 staff meeting that Hunzikerhas been suspended "pending investigation" by the company, according to a recording reviewed by Business Insider.

"There havebeen many concerns raised about Matt that the company is obligated to investigate and he has been suspended until we reach a resolution," a Cond Nast spokesperson said in a statement.

The spokesperson did not detail what concerns sparked the suspension.Katzeff did not provide reasons for the suspension on the call, citing policies from legal and human resources.

Three employees at CNE and Bon Apptit told Business Insider that they believe Hunziker was suspended for his posts on social media that were critical of the company.

On June 12, several days after Bon Apptit's top editor and head of video resigned for racist social media posts, Hunziker tweeted , "Why would we hire someone who's not racist when we could simply [checks industry handbook] uhh hire a racist and provide them with anti-racism training..."

In the Thursday meeting, a CNE employee asked, in direct reference to Hunziker's suspension, what protections were in place for employees who voice their opinions on company policies. Katzeff responded, "The issue of being able to speak openly and safely in meetings, in these forums, and working groups is of utmost importance to me."

Hunziker did not respond to multiple requests for comment.
