HR is not confused. HR is managing you.
Silence is a strategy. Vagueness is a strategy. “We’ll look into it” with no timeline is a strategy. And most people walk away thinking they don’t have a case.
They’re waiting for you to go away.
Here’s the shift: stop asking HR what’s happening. Start asking HR to justify what they’re doing.
The five words 👇
What is your legal basis?
Then follow up in writing. Every time. Because not answering on the record is its own kind of answer.
You don’t need to be a lawyer to use this. You just need to know that every HR decision affecting your job has to be grounded in something.
Make them show you what it’s grounded in.
Not legal advice — always consult an employment attorney for your specific situation.
