How Job Specific Name Tags Can Help Your Business

Name Tag Pros • January 17, 2022

We’ve been in the name tag industry for decades and we get a lot of questions. One of the questions we hear a lot is whether job titles should be included on employee name badges. The short answer is that it is really up to you. If your company is small, you may want to just include employees’ names without their positions. However, if you have a larger company with numerous employees, then you may want to include more than just employee names.

When Job Titles Count

A large metropolitan library recently discovered why having job titles on name tags is a good idea. During an employee meeting, they began to discuss some issues in general. One of the problems that came to light was that patrons were having a difficult time connecting with the right library employee. Patrons reached out to numerous library employees trying to track down the person they needed. Since the library name tags contained only employee names, they had problems finding the person qualified to help in the area they needed it most. Even though it’s an isolated incident, it is an underlying problem in many industries.


Job Titles Help Address Customer Needs

Businesses often have the same problem this larger library experienced. Customers may find themselves walking around trying to find an employee who can help them. Not having job titles on name badges can create a poor customer experience which can be costly to the business. However, having job titles displayed on employee name badges helps customers and other employees find the right person to help. If your business has a large number of employees who are in close contact with your customers, you may want to consider having their job titles included on name badges.
