Review & Submission Guidelines

Last updated: September 24, 2026

CaribSalaries only works if the information on it is real. These rules keep it useful and keep contributors safe.

Do

  • Report your own salary and your own experience of an employer.
  • Be specific about the job, not the people — what the work, pay, hours, management practices, and conditions were actually like.
  • Give a fair picture, including what was good.
  • Report your salary as it was, in the currency you were actually paid in.
  • Tell us if you're paid in a foreign currency for a locally based role — it's genuinely useful information for others.

Don't

  • Don't name individuals. No managers, colleagues, HR staff, or executives — not by name, nickname, job title where the title identifies one person, or description. Reviews are about organisations.
  • Don't share confidential information. Trade secrets, client details, unreleased products, internal documents, or anything covered by an agreement you signed.
  • Don't make accusations of criminal conduct. If something illegal happened, it belongs with the police, the Ministry of Labour and Social Security, or an attorney — not a review site. We remove this content, for your protection as much as ours.
  • Don't submit for a job you haven't held.
  • Don't submit multiple reports for the same role to weight the numbers.
  • Don't post hate speech, harassment, slurs, or content targeting people on the basis of race, sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or any other protected characteristic.
  • Don't post promotional content, links, or recruitment pitches.
  • Don't submit a review as an employer about your own company, positively or negatively.

What we do with submissions

Everything is reviewed by a human before it appears. We may reject a submission or ask nothing of you at all — we cannot contact anonymous submitters, so anonymous submissions that break these rules are simply not published.

Salary figures appear as soon as they're approved, labelled with how many reports support them. Review text stays hidden until a second report exists for the same employer and role. In small workplaces, a single detailed review can identify the person who wrote it. Waiting for a second report protects you.

What gets a submission rejected

These are the checks a moderator runs on every submission. Any one of them is enough on its own, and the list is published so that a rejection is never a mystery.

  1. Names or otherwise identifies an individual.
  2. Alleges criminal conduct, fraud, or specific illegal acts.
  3. Contains confidential or proprietary information.
  4. Salary figure is implausible for the role/country (verify or reject).
  5. Duplicate of an existing submission from the same person.
  6. Hate speech, harassment, slurs, or protected-characteristic targeting.
  7. Promotional content, spam, or links.
  8. Content appears to be written by the employer (positive) or a competitor (negative).
  9. Company or role entry is a near-duplicate of an existing entity → merge rather than reject.
