Serious Misconduct Policy

Indeed works to keep our platform safe and fair. We want it to be trustworthy for all job seekers and employers. Some behaviours seriously violate our policies. This may result in immediate and permanent account action.

About this policy

What is serious misconduct?

Serious misconduct means actions that:

  • Harm the safety of Indeed's platform
  • Compromise the operational integrity of our platform

Serious misconduct has two main types:

  • Platform abuse
  • User safety violations

However, this list is not exhaustive. Indeed has the final say as to what action qualifies as serious misconduct.

What happens if you breach this policy

  • We will suspend your account.
  • This applies to all profiles linked to your account.

Can you appeal?

  • Many serious violations may not be eligible for an appeal.
  • A remediation path may be available in limited situations where required by local regulations.
