Is it legal for a university to require students to leave boxes when taking express delivery?
Dongfang. com reporter Fu Wenzhao reported on October 20th: Express delivery is ok, and the box is left. A few days ago, such a strange rule appeared in a university in Xi ‘an. Students queue up at the express delivery collection point to unpack the boxes and pick up the pieces. Once the things they buy involve personal privacy, the scene will be embarrassing … …
School notice
It is understood that the express delivery collection point in this university recently received a Notice on the Dismantling of Packages such as Express Delivery Boxes from the school, which requires that the express delivered by the express delivery collection point must be removed on the spot, and the staff will disassemble and flatten the boxes on the spot and stack them neatly. It is strictly forbidden for the picker to take the boxes away. If the collection point fails to be implemented as required, the logistics support department of the school will impose compulsory punishment by means of a fine of 5,000 to 30,000 yuan, suspension of business for rectification, expulsion from school, etc.
Regarding this rule, some students said that if the shoe box is dismantled when buying a pair of shoes, "one shoe in each hand is taken back to the dormitory, and then you are treated like a monster when you walk on the road." "If you buy fruit, you can’t take it back one by one." Because there are still students taking the express box away during the execution, the staff of the express point revealed that "the boss has eaten several tickets." Some netizens pointed out that if girls buy personal hygiene products, or personal privacy items such as underwear, do they have to open them on the spot? In addition, there is personal information of the recipient on the box, and some netizens are worried that personal privacy will be revealed.
Lawyer Yin Qingli, director of Beijing R&F Law Firm, said that according to the product quality law and contract law, the packaging of products is also an important part of products. For products like fruits, the packaging itself plays a protective role. This method adopted by this university in Xi ‘an will not only lead to inadequate protection of the whole product, but also infringe on the privacy of purchasing these products. This simple practice of the school infringes on the legitimate rights of students.
According to the staff of the school office, after students take the courier, it is easy to throw the courier box back to the dormitory, which affects the environmental sanitation. "So let them dismantle the box. If you encounter something more private, you won’t let them tear it down. "
Lawyer Yin Qingli believes that the school’s current practice is too simple, and some rules and regulations should be formulated to manage, restrain and supervise the handling of student garbage classification. Schools can give criticism and education to students who violate the relevant regulations on garbage classification, and can also give corresponding warnings or other disciplinary actions according to the seriousness of the circumstances. It should not be so "one size fits all".
