AIBU HR lost my employment contract

I have worked for a company for over 11 years . At present there is threat of possible redundancy , due to this i asked for a copy of my employment contract . 4 weeks later after chasing several people and going into head office I was told they ‘aren’t able to locate it ‘ so effectively it is lost ! (They acknowledge that it is most definitely lost ) I know these things can happen but I’m more annoyed that A) they didn’t tell me as soon as they found out that it was lost and I had to track them down in person to be told and B) in following emails they won’t refer to it being lost ! After asking for what they have on file they have also sent me several official contract letters that were never actually posted out to me ! I requested a copy of my contact last year and received no response so they may have known it was lost since last year. OH thinks that I should leave it and not complain however I feel that as an employer they have the duty to keep my information secure . If it had been genuinely misplaced and I was informed straight away I would think differently but now I am miffed !! Aibu ? Should I just drop it as OH suggests ?

Do you not have a copy yourself? You should have kept a copy of what you signed? ( I was sent 2 copies of my contract, one to sign and one to keep).

But yes, HR should also be able to locate a copy. It's not like you started the job decades ago.
