Justin Salt is a fictional character in the New Zealand soap opera "Shortland Street. "He is portrayed by Heath Jones.

Justin works as a surgeon for Justine Jones at Shortland Street Hospital.

His character was introduced initially as a cocky antagonist who irritated Claire Solomon and Libby Jeffries when he attempts to find employment at the clinic. When one night at The IV he goes too far, troubled amnesiac and barman Kieran Mitchell intervenes, revealing a dormant volatile nature. The violence escalates when Kieran convinces Claire to assist him in kidnapping Justin to teach him a lesson. They bring him to a garden shed behind their home and under duress he repents for his behaviour. He was later discovered by Jay Copeland bound in the trunk of a car.

Originally a character brought in to expose the dark and unpredictable nature of Kieran, he has developed into a prime suspect for Claire's murder investigation. His initials, J. S. appeared in Claire's diary as well as his lighter turning up in her bag, the morning she was found dead. It seems apparent that he recognizes Claire's voice from the night of the kidnapping, and he comments at one point that her perfume smells familiar to him too.

Recently it has been revealed that Justin and Gavin Capper have history in that they covered for each other when something when wrong. One incident was admitted to police where Justin that Gavin had help him falsified blood results following an accident.

They were both considered as suspects as the Ferndale Strangler serial killer. Ultimately however, in December 2007, it was revealed that neither party was the Ferndale Strangler.
