I want to stop users from displaying table contents in SAP HR tables. I don't want to take away user access to an SE16N transaction, but I do want to block them when they wish to list contents of the HR tables. Is this possible?

This is possible. Remove authority for S_TABU_DIS for displaying documents in authorization groups that include SAP HR tables. SAP HR Personnel Administration (PA) is an authorization group assigned to many SAP HR tables.
