Isn’t this the same as saying HR is there to protect the company, not the employee ?
I mean obviously, any action undertaken by a company or employee or agent there of is to further their own interests.
However, often your interests align with theirs.
If you receive a “company email” about some internal policy which has been updated or something mundane, sure it’s purpose is ultimately to “protect company profits” or however you want to say it, but for an employee don’t you also have an interest in being aware of internal policies?
It just seems really reductive to say that the purpose of company emails is to “protect the writer”.
