All employees of the County of Accomack are required to wear or at least have their badge on them at all times during working hours.   Below are some common questions regarding employee badges.

Q.  What is the purpose of employee badges?

A.  There are numerous reasons for employees to have badges.  Badges are mainly for security purposes. 

• By wearing your badge and having it in plain sight, we are able to identify who our employees are and are not. 
• It is a way for our community  to know who they may be seeing or speaking to during times of assessments and inspections.
• This is a way to identify employees so they can receive the employee discounts that are available.

Q.  I do not have a badge.  How may I obtain one?

A.  If you currently do not have a County issued employee badge, please have your supervisor send an email to buildingaccess@co.accomack.va.us.  Someone within the building access group will contact you to schedule a time to have your picture taken. If your badge cannot be generated the day of your picture,  you will need to come back to the Human Resources Department so that you can sign for your badge. 

Q.  My badge has broken and I can no longer access my assigned building.  Can I get a new one?

A.  Absolutely.  Again, please have your supervisor send an email to buildingaccess@co.accomack.va.us.   The someone within the building access group will contact you to schedule a time to pick-up a new badge.

Q.  I am unable to gain access into a building.  Are all employees supposed to have access to buildings?

A.  Keep in mind that not all employees will have an access badge.  This is dependent upon your position.  If your badge is one that provides access to specific locations on County property, it is possible for your badge to become inactive for unforeseen reasons.  Should this happen, please please have your supervisor send an email to buildingaccess@co.accomack.va.us.
