No, that's a *big* error, regardless of motivation, and done to the wrong person, has the potential for *big* (read: serious) consequences.
Agreed. Based on the information presented here, the HR person probably violated company policy (which is created and implemented specifically to minimize the company's exposure to legal liability) and almost certainly broke the law. The fact that she lied about it afterward only compounds an already serious problem.
It sounds to me like this person is not qualified or fit to work in an HR department.
