Photo ID Badges

Post by pinstripe »

Has anyone had their photo ID badge renewed?

All the ones in our office are due to expire. What have management done about it? Guess.

Took a year to get our new ones, still, it's a good job that RM Security insist on them being worn at all times while inside RM premises.

If you have a upto date badge you can go in the English hertiage sites for free. Not everyones cup of tea i know, but a small perk for those interested. Link below for those intersted.
