Part of this is due to incentives. Police and elected officials have an incentive to appear tough on crime.

Theres no particular reason a priori, to assume that HR has the same incentives. In fact if anything, the current state of affairs may imply the opposite.

They do: risk of lawsuit. Risk of the PR hit of a Twitter mob descending on the company.

There's a risk of lawsuit from either side though (sexual harrassment/workplace safety vs wrongful termination).
