I've been a shipping manager for 5 years, so I know my stuff. As a shipping clerk/manager, I must see to that all the persons of the company receive their mail. If a package is un-named either I have to open it, or give it to the office manager. I had to sign a confidentiality contract, which would legally allow me to open any un-addressed packages. If you have anything company related being sent to you, and would not like anyone to open it, make sure nothing is company related on the address of delivery.

It can get more complicated in other areas of legal stuff, but I had my own rules. If anything was un-addressed, but looked really important, than I would pass it off to the office manager, let them take the heat if it was important stuff that only the “president” of the company should know.


Really, it’s up to the company president and shipping manager to clear this issue and make it clear to all office/workplace employees.

Hope this helps you out a bit.
