What Commonly Goes On a Name Tag?

Unlike most name badges business use, a name tag does not have an abundance of information on it. In fact, it only requires little and still be effective. But, somehow name tags vary from one business to another which presents instances where there are more pieces of information in one name tag than the other.

The most common pieces of information that goes on a name tag are the name and job position. First names are ingrained in whatever medium your name tag is made of because it ideally makes someone feel special when a person is called upon by their name. And taking into consideration that people encounter lots of people on a day to day basis, having the name on a name tag will simply make it easier for people to remember who it is they are referring to. On the other hand, job positions are also added on the name tag as it becomes convenient for people to know who it is they are talking to. Whether he or she is the employee, the manager, the supervisor, or even a new trainee, putting that on the name tag will make it easier for people to distinguish who is who.

However, some add more to their name tags, especially on a business standpoint. Others also include the name and the logo of the company they work for. If not, they go far extents by also adding contact information and a little bit of personal information other than the name (i.e birthday).
