What are the rules of discussing salary? I work with my dad and I told him my hourly wage. Someone else found out my wage I'm assuming by my father and I am being harrassed by my HR rep for it. She told me I was not legally allowed to tell anyone including family my salary. Is that true and can i get in trouble for it?

You cannot be terminated for just cause for sharing your hourly wage with your father. If your company does terminate your employment, you should receive severance pay.
