It depends on the HR professional I'd say. HR like other employees need to understand they are their own brand. Whilst employed by some company which they support, HR people especially when certified, have an obligation to be fair and ethical. Whilst supporting the company, employees need to be equally supported and it's a middle ground to be struck here. HR is more an art than a science as my friend always says. HR should advise the business properly and not just execute whatever they are told. It can be very challenging though and requires very resilient personalities. For example, I was asked to issue a warning letter to a person who leaves on time. Of course I didn't do it, and pushed back. Influencing skills are important too. It can get very tiring though and perhaps that's why some professionals just go down the easier path which is to follow the instruction.

That situation wound up in my review and I lost the opportunity to work in a position I was already performing and fully qualified for. I was not fired, but it soured it for me. Same stuff different company. My manager asked me to write a statement against my supervisor.

Mind you, i havent been written up in 3 years prior to this and all of a sudden this kid writes me up. I already knew once he got promoted he was gonna go after me because he would always try to act like a ASM and tell associates what to do, etc. and i told him he’s not the boss and dont tell me what to do. Its funny because almost half the store banded up and actually signed a petition to demote him from DH because of his abuse of power. But guess what? I go into the managers office and specifically told the manager this kid was always troublesome and my mistake was just that. Going to the manager and i will never forget after the conversation the manager says to me “dont worry, you wont get fired unless you do something absolutely stupid” come to find out after i made numerous complaints to HR about him, the manager opens the case and goes to HR from the headquarters side and they call me and say i am terminated but never gave me a specific reason why i was. Looking back, i dont really care because Home Depot lost a very good and hard worker. I got along fine with everybody and even had a couple ASM’s call and text me directly saying how sorry they were about what happened to me and that it was all corruption from the start.

It’s really not the fault of people in the workforce that they are “blissfully unaware” of whose interests HR really represents when these companies are allowed to effectively lie to their employees about HR’s true role. The only way most learn about this is by becoming a victim of the system by trying to resolve issues through HR. Students should be taught about this in high school, before they ever enter the workforce, so they can protect their interests. But instead these schools teach “wokeness” and other such divisive propaganda. We live in a corporate state, not a democracy.

I can vouch on the arbitration thing even here in Iowa. It's recently reinforced worker's rights and my company tried to get everyone to sign an arbitration agreement. My uncle and I got pretty good at Legaleze and so I read through the whole thing and looked them dead in the eyes right as my coworkers were about to sign (cause they were dumb and tried to do this all in a big group) and said, "I refuse. I won't sign this even if it costs me my job." My coworkers asked why and I explained they couldn't sue the company if they got injured doing something they were effectively ultimatumed into doing. They'd have to take it to the company's judge. HR tried to say I was wrong and it was a neutral private judge and I said, "Private judge? Who pays him?" And they tried to deflect by saying it could be a woman so I said, "Them, than. Who pays them?" The argument went on for a bit longer before everyone in my crew at my department (maintenance) refused and so I looked at them. "What's it gonna be? Hire 8 new mechanics in the next 3 days or go forward with the risk?" Whelp. I had my job for another 3 years after that. Now the company is going belly up because of poor management.

The way to break them of arbitration is to Uber-tration them and have everyone file at once. Sign the papers and then file for being coerced to sign the papers. Collect notes on anything that even implies you're being pressured to sign. Most states have the concept of constructive terminatition. That's when your employer does something that effectively constitutes firing you like changing shifts to force a single Mom work during the time she should be picking up her kids. Make them hire enough arbitration judges for the entire company since most arbitration agreements include language around the time permitted to conduct the arbitration. That cost alone can bankrupt some companies.

I was bullied by my line manager on several occasions and went to HR with evidence and witness testimonies. I had glowing appraisals prior to this. The bullying was downplayed by HR and I was isolated and set up for failure. God saved me and quickly got me out of that toxic environment. HR works for the employer, not employees. It is so obvious now. They often have no integrity or value for people. Be smart people! I pray for peace in your life ❤

Oh yeah, if you are a man, never be alone in a room with a female colleague - or at least if you are, make sure the door is open and other people can see you both - always sit opposite, and never next to her.

To me, it's a simple matter of "Who's buried in Grant's tomb". The department is called "human resources". They hire just enough human beings to get the job done, pay them just enough to keep them from quitting, a lay some of them off occasionally to scare the rest of them into working longer hours. You are a living, breathing human being, working hard to support your family, and you are literally just a disposable RESOURCE to them.

I was being harassed by a creep at my last job, and I very stupidly tried reporting it to HR. After her ‘investigation’, the HR lady came back and said she found no evidence of harassment, and in fact had come to the conclusion that I was in the wrong! The creep denied any wrongdoing and told her that I was being rude to him for no reason, and she decided to take his side and get rid of me instead. Ultimately the worst part of all this - that creep just got away with harassing me and now knows he can continue to get away with it and HR won’t do a thing.

I definitely learned my lesson! I at first didn’t say anything about the harassment as I was worried I would be accused of lying and lose my job, but after two years of it I’d finally had enough and couldn’t keep quiet any longer. I at first told my supervisor, and he actually said ‘I’m not sure if we should go through the HR lady because her and that guy (the creep) are quite close’ so even he had suspicions about her! So instead of going directly to her, we tried going to our general manager, but he then went to her, claiming ‘we have to go through HR for things like this’, and she claimed right off the bat that because the harassment started so long ago and because the creep only ever targeted me when there was no one around (so no witnesses) that they couldn’t investigate it, but they would speak to the creep anyway. The creep then claimed I’d been rude to him and HR ended up starting an investigation against me! The creep claimed he had ‘witnesses’ to my rude behaviour, and HR got statements from them which backed up his claims, but I noticed immediately on reading those statements that they contained lots of inconsistencies and things that just didn’t make sense, so I knew they weren’t true statements. I pointed these inconsistencies out to HR/management, but they still believed them! I believe the creep simply went to these ‘witnesses’ and told them of my claims against him and they agreed to back him up. I told the HR lady that was my opinion and she completely denied it as a possibility. ‘Oh, they signed those statements as accurate, and they know if they make false statements they could face disciplinary action so they would *never* do the that!’ My response was ‘well how can you *prove* whether they’re accurate or not??’ and she had no reply. She then fired *me* for ‘serious misconduct’ for ‘bullying’ the creep and ‘lying’ in my statements. This is *exactly* what I was worried would happen and why I didn’t report it sooner!

He would try to sneak around it by offering to do the cleaning while I did the dishes, but I always knew he volunteered to "clean" because he was a lazy POS who would just sweep food under the counters.

Not only does HR share everything you say widely, they find it hilarious. They laugh at the stories. They help management conceal fraud and abuse on a daily basis. They already know about abusers before you say anything because you will not be the first to complain. They protect the abusers. That is their job.

Rule of thumb: Don’t go to HR unless it is important enough that you would be willing to pay an attorney to defend your rights. HR is not a counselor and is not your mom or dad. They aren’t there for whining about small things - they are a business protecting the bottom line. HR can easily find ways to write you up and get you fired if you are more trouble than they think you as an employee may be worth.

@@stratelite1337 It's more accurate to say the investigation is to find out what evidence the employee has, whether it's incriminating, and whether the employee has made said evidence available to themselves and their attorney outside the employer's control. Hence, every company having strict infosec, recording, and nondisclosure clauses nowadays; they want to be able to fire you if you, for example, email incriminating evidence to yourself or record HR conversations (in a one-party consent state) which you can access outside company resources. The one and only time I got significant headway in an HR investigation against a hostile supervisor, was when they fudged their DARVO shtick. I clapped back with a zip document containing dozens of screenshots; Slack chatlogs; Quip backups and changelogs; recorded meeting notes and minutes with dates, times and names; and archived emails that I'd sent from my personal email, with my attorney CC'ed and a "no uncertain terms" reminder that retaliation is illegal by state and federal law. They got the message, my case was escalated to corporate, and it was actually handled fairly from that point forward. So naturally, not a month later our infosec policy magically, mysteriously, changed so that chatlogs are wiped regularly, and the Windows snipping tool was disabled on all company computers.

Never take it personally, just focus on yourself and your job performance and walk softly around the troublemakers and keep a low profile.

@@kbeautician So applications vary, as you likely know. Some are quick and to the point and then others want you to also answer interview questions, take all these tests, submit a personality assessment, and so on. Then there are some where the application is requiring that you provide information that is strictly between you and your past and or current employer (if your still at that job). They only ask for dates of hire, rate of pay, and whether someone is eligible for rehire (a simple yes or no) from my experience completing employment verifications. I was sometimes asked or prompted to state the reason of separation but I could not provide that to the agencies performing employment background checks. If I were to do so and the reason or explanation could negatively impact someone's ability to acquire a job, I and the company would be in legal trouble. Everyone has a right to work and to not be discriminated against. However, some applications are designed to get us to provide information that they don't need to have so they can underhandedly weed out people. Knowing this, I stopped filling out steps that weren't mandatory (*) and used discernment even for the mandatory ones. If I was forced to provide any of the above information that was irrelevant or could be used to discriminate, I left that company alone. Interview related questions can be answered during a proper interview and that is where they also gauge whether or not your personality is a strong fit for their team dynamic and company culture.

I was written up a few weeks later. I asked for more detail about why I was being written up and never was told. About 2 month later, I realized I was no longer employed when I tried to enter the building with my badge. That was 2.5 years ago and I still have my badge, keys, and other equipment from the company. I told hr how they didn't even have the courtesy to let me know I wasn't working there. Of course my supervisors said I knew I was terminated.

This really is simply solved by having all communication with HR logged via email. If they refuse and want to give you bogus “verbal warnings” to help their case against you then immediately after the notice write them an email outlining the day/time they talked to you, the content of the conversation and the fact that you requested the notice be in writing but they refused

This is 100% true in every way shape and form. I've been working for the same company for 21 years. We've always wondered why we can't keep GOOD HR people around. They always quit. Word gets out its a toxic environment and if a nice HR person actually cares about helping the employee they are forced out. If they are miserable with no people skills they stick around for years.

I’ve had to learn the hard way on some of these. It really opened my eyes to how important the social factor at work is. At the end of the day you can be good at your job, but if you don’t fit in they will document nonsense and get rid of you. Meanwhile other people who fit in can do whatever they want and there’s no repercussions. Thank you for being open and honest about how things actually work in corporate america.

Amen. It’s sad truly, but hey one day we won’t need HR anymore. For heaven don’t have any liars or deceivers( plus more) there. Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. Tell the Lord, Jesus Christ that you are sorry for your wrong doings and you need His help. Ask Him to come into your heart and be your Lord and Savior and He will. Start reading the Bible talking, listening, and obeying His Word as best you can. He will help you from the moment you receive Him as your Lord and Savior.

Yep, see this at my job every day. They're also big on DEI stuff, black and especially black women get away with murder. I had to point out some pretty significant mistakes they've made and dereliction of duties and been told "they don't have the same work ethic as you, it's unfair to expect that of them. Why are you trying to make them look bad?" No, I was just showing you that they're blatantly ignoring company policies. But I'm the bad guy.

The worst thing about arbitration is that the companies will often require you to sign it as a contingency of getting the job. There is often no way to refuse if you want or need the job.

It should be illegal to arm twist a potential employee especially in a state like Texas where they let businesses/ companies do whatever they want. But on the flip side, you have to look at how many companies have been sued in the past for the most minute issues and had to pay billions. For every action there's a reaction. I'm just hoping they can revise those arbitration clauses in their handbooks for the sake of justice.

One of the best tools you have to defend yourself as an employee is to keep detailed records of events. Keep date, time, persons in conversation, what was said, etc in your records. Do not tell *anyone* you keep the records! Also, be sure to know the employment laws of your state and how to contact the DOL in your state. Remember, companies are only interested in their welfare, not yours. I have won a case against one of my former employers but the process is draining.

Absolutely. Thank you for writing such a relevant comment. I speak from both observation and experience as I write this. This information is likely going to save certain people lives, sanity, mental health and career trajectory. I've seen it work in very ugly work situations. Be your own insurance policy. Do the essential write up, even though it may feel somewhat redundant or tedious. Look over your day and just write entry or bullet point format of what was covered by HR, management or how situations were handled. This is going to be the facts you will rely on (with dates, possible times and names, as mentioned above).

My whole career has been in HR from a file clerk to head of HR. I watch these types of videos and can sympathize with people not trusting HR. My only advice is dont trust your employer. You're absolutely replaceable and shouldn't hold any allegiance to a company or management. Unfortunately HR departments are able to get away with a lot because employees are noy fully aware of employment law or their rights, which depending on what state you live in, your employment is at will, which means you can be fired for any reason or no reason at all. The best advice I can give you is to get everything in writing. Most of the things presented here (like arbitration) is well within a companies right to require employees to sign away. I'm self employed now consulting companies on hiw to better treat their employees and can say I get plenty of work!
