This is a very interesting question that we unfortunately don’t have much coverage on.
There is no specific law that prohibits employers from mandating employees to share a hotel room during business travel, it is important to consider the potential negative impact on employee relations. Opting for such an arrangement may lead to issues in the long term, resulting in decreased employee morale, higher turnover rates, and reduced productivity. These consequences can ultimately outweigh any cost savings initially achieved.
Some of the cons of room-sharing may spill into other more regulated areas including employee privacy and even harassment.
