Recently, the reporter learned of an administrative public interest lawsuit case from the People's Procuratorate of Xuhui District, Shanghai. The court has issued pre litigation prosecution suggestions to relevant functional departments, promoted the rules and regulations for the prevention and treatment of sexual harassment in the medical beauty industry in the region, and implemented supervision of a medical institution that has previously committed forced indecent assault cases in accordance with the law to protect the legitimate rights and interests of women.

This public welfare case is based on a criminal case handled by the Xuhui Procuratorate last year. Jiang, a dental attending physician at a medical beauty clinic in Xuhui District, used the trust of others in doctors to perform unnecessary physical examinations and sexually assaulted a female customer. After being prosecuted by the Xuhui Procuratorate in accordance with the law, the court sentenced Jiang to one year in prison for the crime of forced indecency, and also prohibited him from engaging in medical and related work after the execution of the sentence.

During the investigation, the prosecutor learned that there are currently 42 social medical beauty institutions in Xuhui District, with a total of 72 registered medical beauty chief physicians in 2022, which is characterized by a large number of institutions, wide distribution, and a large group of practicing physicians. When female customers receive services at medical beauty institutions, they often stay alone in enclosed spaces, some even under anesthesia, without any awareness. However, most medical beauty institutions have not established a sexual harassment prevention and control system, which poses certain risks.

According to the newly revised Law of the People's Republic of China on the Protection of Women's Rights and Interests on October 30, 2022, if the legitimate rights and interests of women are infringed upon, resulting in damage to public interests, the procuratorial organs may file a public interest lawsuit in accordance with the law. On February 3rd of this year, the public interest prosecution team of Xuhui Procuratorate officially filed and handled administrative public interest litigation cases.

The procuratorate first invited lawyer volunteers and relevant departments with rich experience in the prevention and control of corporate sexual harassment to jointly investigate the medical beauty outpatient department involved in the case. They conducted on-site inquiries and reviewed the internal rules and regulations of the medical beauty institution involved, confirming that the institution had not taken effective measures to prevent and stop sexual harassment after Jiang's forced molestation case. Based on the potential legal risks of sexual harassment prevention and control in the enterprise, volunteers systematically explained management points and compliance suggestions to the medical beauty institution. At present, the beauty institution involved in the case has strengthened internal personnel management, established a sexual harassment prevention and control management system, and posted it prominently in the institution. Relevant women's rights protection manuals have been placed in the rest area to further strengthen the promotion of women's rights protection.

On the basis of handling specific cases, the Xuhui Procuratorate has issued prosecutorial suggestions to relevant functional departments in the district, hoping to promote the implementation of rules and regulations for the prevention and treatment of sexual harassment in medical beauty institutions throughout the district.

When it comes to prosecutors, most people's impression may be that they are "national prosecutors" handling criminal cases, dressed in uniforms, accusing crimes. In the recently popular TV series "Public Prosecution", Dilraba portrayed the prosecutor Anna in this image. In recent years, procuratorial organs have increasingly attached importance to the functions of civil, administrative, and public interest litigation procuratorial organs, and they have also formed the "four major procuratorial functions" in the new era together with criminal procuratorial organs. In the recent procuratorial competition organized by the Supreme People's Procuratorate, civil, administrative, and public interest litigation competitions were added for the first time. After fierce competition, several civil, administrative, and public interest litigation prosecutors in Shanghai have been awarded the title of business model. The story of prosecutors outside of the prosecutor is equally exciting. Through their stories, perhaps we can gain a more comprehensive understanding of the profession of prosecutors and gain a deeper understanding of prosecutors

In recent years, short video live streaming platforms have developed rapidly. According to reports from relevant research institutions, the user base of online live streaming in China has exceeded 700 million people. Under the huge market dividend, many anchors have abundant income, which has also stimulated more young people to enter the anchor industry. Xiaoyu, who is still in college, is one of them. In August 2020, he signed an exclusive entertainment agency contract with a cultural company in Shanghai, despite his handsome appearance. However, four months later, due to frequent conflicts between the company's arranged live broadcast time and school courses, the two sides continued to experience friction. Xiaoyu had the idea of terminating the contract, and the company proposed a penalty of 9 million yuan for breach of contract. Xiaoyu's experience is not an exception. According to a review of public reports by Jiefang Daily's Shangguan News, many companies will stipulate high liquidated damages in their contracts when signing contracts with anchors.
