Improve Security and Enhance Your Image
In many organizations, visitors and contractors are still being asked to sign a paper visitor log upon check-in. While this method of keeping track of visitors is perceived as quick and easy, it provides very little security and poses several problems:
- More often than not, the names are not legible or are false
- In an emergency such as a fire, it would be impossible to quickly determine who is still in the building because the names can’t be read and the check-out times are not always required or enforced
- Information regarding who has visited the company is readily available for everyone to see when this information should be kept confidential
- The paper log and hand-written visitor badges present a poor image to visitors and a perception of lax security
