Why do employees use a different entrance?

It could of course be an Imaginary Door, into an Imaginary Ballroom

So, why do employees have to use a different entrance to customers/clients? And how have you dealt with new managers who have re-written the rule book?

Most likely so that they can do security checks on staff away from the main entrance, same as in retail. They wouldn't want their guests seeing staff bags being searched for towels/toiletries/cutlery/stationery and the subsequent hullabaloo should any be found.

If it makes you happier to have reasons, here's another reason.


I mystery shop high end hotels. If I saw the doorman NOT opening the door, offering an umbrella etc. to an arrival, I would mark him down. Are you expecting a doorman to do this for fellow employees, or to risk a penalty report from your mystery shopper?
