What Are the Jobs Policies?

Jobs
 

•    Each job posting must advertise an individual (one vacancy only) and a specific position.

•    Generic postings advertising multiple vacancies or employment services are not allowed.

•    Each ad should state salary, location and detailed position description.

•    Employers may not request any upfront fees of any kind.

•    Agencies must clearly identify themselves, they may not use this category as a platform to promote their business.

•    All job agencies must post their ads using an active business domain.

•    We want to make sure that the job offers posted on Gumtree are legitimate. If you post an offer for formal employment using general email addresses, such as Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook, etc., your ad may be removed by our moderation team. - If you're posting as a private individual looking to hire some house help or a nanny - don't worry, you can still post the ad with your personal email address. If for any reasons you feel that we should make an exception - please get in touch and we’ll be happy to help you with tips on how to be successful with your ad.

•    We do not accept postings that require candidates to send money or stamped addressed envelopes to gain further details of the positions.

•    Job posters may not use fax or SMS as the primary means of communication.

•    Multi-level marketing jobs must be posted from an active business domain while also meeting all other job policy requirements.

•    Pyramid schemes/stokvels, or jobs that require periodic payments.

•    We do not accept job adverts for cash in handwork.

•    We do not accept postings that contain links to other websites that offer the user job posting facilities.

•    Job postings should be placed in the category which most closely relates to the actual nature of the vacancy rather than the nature of the employer or industry. If you are unsure post in the 'General Jobs' category.

•    Job ads of sexual or indecent nature are not allowed. Gumtree is a community website. We reserve the right at our discretion to refuse or remove content, or those parts thereof, that we believe is inappropriate for Gumtree.

•    We ask that all fields in the Job Posting Form be filled out correctly.

•    We do not accept postings that advertise for models or actors (either male or female) using generic (Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail, etc) email accounts and/or mobile phone numbers. These posters must include a registered agency email address and landline phone number.

•    We do not accept adverts for Escort/Adult industry work.

•    We do not accept job adverts for medical trials unless advertised by a reputable medical research facility. (Details may be requested)

•    All "work from home" job offers must be posted using a business domain while also meeting all other job policy requirements.

•    We do not allow vacancies offered by companies and staffing agencies located outside of South Africa.

•    Jobs offers taking place overseas must be remunerated in South African Rands and employment contracts must be signed at a local branch. The ads must state a local street address, valid phone number, a website and as much information about the positions as possible to be compliant.

•    We do not allow discrimination in terms of Race, Gender, Sex, Pregnancy, Marital status, Ethnic or social origin Colour, Sexual orientation, Age, Disability, Religion, Conscience, Belief, Culture, Language and birth; or any other grounds of discrimination.


We reserve the right to remove ads without refund where these breach our posting rules and/or our Gumtree Terms of Use.
 
It is the responsibility of the advertiser before posting an ad on Gumtree that content advertised adheres to Gumtree Posting Policies (What are the General posting rules?) as well as applicable laws. As a condition of your use of Gumtree specified under our Gumtree Terms of Use, you agree that you will not violate any laws.
