Simply put, if your company does not provide neck lanyards for its employees, it is time for a change in your company’s policy. Giving ID lanyards to your employees can help improve the workplace in several ways. If you are still skeptical about this idea, here are four concrete reasons that your company’s employees should be wearing lanyards:
Safety
Improved safety is the most obvious (and most important) benefit of having your employees wear neck lanyards with their ID tags. By requiring everyone to prominently display their ID badges on a lanyard, you can ensure that if an unauthorized individual enters your office, they will be quickly identified by you or someone on your staff.
Employee Interaction
This benefit is especially true for medium to large office environments. Since all of your employees will have their name visible, there is no excuse for your employees not speaking to each other on a first name basis. This increased level of personalized communication will not only make the office a friendlier place, but it will actually increase the productivity of your employees. As we all know, people are more efficient workers when they are in a comfortable environment, and with the aid of neck lanyards, you can create a much warmer environment for your employees to work in.

Customer Interaction
Much like employee to employee interaction, giving your employees lanyards to wear will make their interactions with customers more productive. If a customer is speaking with one of your employees and suddenly forgets their name, they will be able to solve this problem by taking a quick glance at the badge on their lanyard. While this may seem like a trivial benefit, it will actually keep your employees self-esteem high while they are doing their job. If a customer tells your employee that they have already forgotten their name, your employee is going to feel at least a little offended. Therefore, you can help them avoid this awkward scenario by giving them an attractive lanyard to wear around their neck.
Company Unity
In addition to the three benefits above, a lanyard will also help you promote company pride and unity among your employees. Adding a policy that involves your employees wearing a lanyard will help instill the idea that they are all part of a team and should work together to help improve the company.
