 It is suggested that people who have pacemakers use pinback backings with their name tags to avoid any disturbance with the pacemaker.Name tags are used by some customer service companies, such as fast food restaurants, so that customers may identify employees by name.Professional employees or representatives of public-facing organizations such as universities, banks, or other companies where employees do not wear uniforms, may wear name tags as a way of distinguishing or identifying the bearer as such, while allowing the employee to wear daily business wear.
