Outsourcing Housekeeping Functions

As mentioned previously, outsourcing certain hotel functions are becoming more and more popular because of the cost-cutting aim of hotels.
One function which could be considered as commonly outsourced would be housekeeping. How does outsourcing helps? Here are some of the advantages mentioned when outsourcing:
-allows housekeepers to concentrate on the core competencies of their job like delivering a well-kept house and keeping the areas maintained
-allows flexibility of operations in terms of utilizing and rotating the manpower
-offers specialized and expert guidance for the maintenance of different areas.
-reduce staff problems in recruitment, training, allocation, appraisals, increments, and dismissals.
These advantages would only work if hotels have proof that outsourcing would work for them and if they are also able to draw an outsourcing contract which they approve of.
