Dear All, I am Kavita, working as an HR in an IT software company. I have recently created employee codes for all employees in the company. Please suggest what details I should include on the employee card. I have already included the employee code, employee name, blood group, and designation. Is this format correct, or do I need to make changes to the card? Your prompt response would be greatly appreciated as this is urgent.

Regards, Kavita

When I was working for someone else, I always wanted my ID cards to have the following information:

Front Side of an ID Card:

1. NAME OF THE EMPLOYEE
2. EMPLOYEE CODE
3. DESIGNATION
4. TEAM NAME/DEPARTMENT NAME

Back Side of an ID Card:

1. Contact Address of the employee (In case of emergency)
2. Contact number of the employee / emergency contact number of the employee
3. BLOOD GROUP
4. Scanned signature of the employee (This can be kept on either side)

Hope this information helps you in some way.

FYI, now I have all this info in my company staff's ID :)

Thanks & regards,
CEO

Hi Padma, I suggest that you should not include the designation on the ID card because every six or twelve months the designation may change due to promotions or other reasons. It would be inconvenient for employees to update their designation separately each time. Similarly, in some companies, departments also change based on requirements. Please consider these scenarios while deciding. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Recommended Information for ID Cards

I recommend including the following information on the ID card:
1. Name
2. ID number
3. Blood group

Additional information can vary based on your terms and conditions.

Thank you

Hi Padma, You are right. I was confused about writing designations on employee cards. Someone has suggested to me that I don't need to write designations on the card. Thanks a lot.

Important Information for Employee ID Cards

Please note another point of mine that the employee's name, employee ID number, and blood group should be on the front side of the ID card. Additional information can be placed on the back of the card. It is essential that permanent, unchangeable information is visible on the front side of the card.

Thank you so much for your response.
