I could see social engineering being a factor, but it feels like the real issue is about how the information was accessed and shared.

Okay, let me think this through. The key details are that the HR employee was working remotely and a family member accessed confidential information. I think the hybrid work environment policy would be the most relevant one to review.

This is a tricky one. The family member posting the information to social media seems like a social engineering issue, but the remote work setup also suggests the hybrid work environment policy could be important. I'll have to weigh the options carefully.
