Strangely enough we had the opposite policy parcels ideally to be opened, all correspondence never to be opened. If you had any sense you opened every single parcel apart from lab samples and things like that.
Stuff goes missing whatever you do, you have to check stuff or have the familiarity with it because otherwise people come along and start making outrageous claims when stuff goes missing. Of course that happened anyway because we had a flawed logging system that I often complained about and basically people would start making up BS stories about one item logged in being another item (because you couldn't distinguish). It was most likely to happen with high value items and personal parcels, which was where what I was saying came into it. I remember a time when a very high value item was confused with something else that had come in - thank god it wasn't me that logged it - took about 3 days to convince the boss's boss that it wasn't that and had in fact gone somewhere else. Never minded personal parcels coming in it's just that some people had totally unrealistic expectations - got it delivered in, no information they even worked there and then got into a strop after you'd tried and failed to contact this person.
