The work load is also increased when extra messy people damage things in the room and nobody knows about it for several days as there was no cleaning staff authorized entry. With high levels of occupancy and people waiting to check in, you don't want to have to take a room out of service or have to call in extra staff at the last minute to get rooms back into inventory without a very long wait for the next guest that is waiting at check in.

I am sure there is a happy medium which can be worked out and that is what the union and management at the various hotels should be talking about to resolve.
I seriously doubt that UNITE is worried about damage to a room or a room being out of service. They certainly aren't worried about calling in extra staff!

And ... can you do MAGC for several days?

MAGC has nothing to do with safety and UNITE knows nothing about innovation.
