How much information should be revealed to HR?












0















How much information should be revealed to HR? Should HR calls be anonymous? Can HR calls be limited in scope?



Specifically, one of my supervisor associates in a retail setting is expressing concern toward a manager who is above us. This person is considering contacting HR on their own, and their communication with me makes me feel as though I may have an obligation to contact HR as well.



I leave the details vague on purpose because I don't want answers to be influenced by the specific situation, I am looking for a generic answer. At this point I do not believe laws are being broken, only that behavior is not conducive to productivity and morale. There may be a discriminatory aspect as well.
