Security badge from the Y-12 facility in North Carolina where my friend also works. He has to wear four badges at all times. All are for different purposes. One is his permanent badge, other is his daily badge, other is door scanner/retina scan badge and other is for lower level access. All badges except dailys remain in base at all times. They do not lave with anyone. They get turned in with a persons coveralls when they leave. Notice on the strip on next to his employee number is turning pink/redish in colour. This strip turns pink if you don't scan it with an ultraviolet badge scanner. Bascially the badge goes bad to prevent counterfeiting or forgery. The strip goes after about 20 hours after about 20 hours without being scanned. If you walk around the facility with a bright pink strip the guards know you are not supposed to be there.
