I have to be honest and say that my working years were long before the position of HR was ever thought of. We had bosses and that was as far as anything regarding complaints went.
Knowing most companies today have HR departments, I agreed with the reply of registering a complaint there.

I have many examples I could give, but I'll give my latest. I had an HR rep sign a document guaranteeing me confidentiality on a health matter. She kept saying I had nothing to do worry about since the matter was also considered protected information by law. She screwed me and spread the info to execs. Honestly, I wasn't surprised.
I wanted confidentiality because my CEO was a psychopath who had terminated people in the past that had a medical crisis or became disabled. He'd been sued countless times already for just that. He terminated me shortly after I came back. I was using vacation so as not to alert him I was gone for a medical reason. The thing that really gets me is this.. I am and was on my wife's medical insurance plan. My medical issue had no impact on him in any way (... again used vacation). Never trust anyone in HR no matter what they say. Never.
