Lost your office keys? It’s stressful and potentially a security risk for your company. Whether they slipped out on your commute, were left in a meeting room, or got mixed up at a café, fast, structured action will protect access and maximize recovery. The HERQ Lost & Found app with QR tracking helps you recover keys quickly, discreetly, and in compliance with workplace security policies.

Immediate Steps (First 30–60 Minutes)

1. Notify building/security – inform facilities or reception so they can log the incident and, if needed, disable access or increase monitoring.
2. Retrace your steps – check desks, meeting rooms, lockers, restrooms, elevators, parking areas, and nearby cafés.
3. Post on HERQ immediately – add a description or photo of the key/fob (no sensitive labels or door numbers) to alert local users.
4. Check on-site lost & found – reception, security, and floor assistants often collect keys quickly.
5. Inform your manager – align on temporary access (guest pass, escort, or rekey request).

How HERQ Accelerates Office Key Recovery

• QR Code Stickers – attach HERQ QR stickers to keyrings or badge holders so finders can contact you securely.
• Instant Community Alerts – notify nearby HERQ users the moment your post goes live.
• Privacy-First Messaging – coordinate returns safely without exposing your phone or email.
• Reward Options – HERQ Coins or small incentives motivate fast, honest returns.

When Security Actions Are Required

If keys are not recovered promptly—or if they identify specific doors—treat as a security event:

• Rekey/Access change – work with facilities to rekey affected locks or update access lists (costs vary by system).
• Temporary badge or escort – ensure you can keep working while recovery or replacement is processed.
• Incident record – log the loss for audit/compliance, especially in regulated environments.

Prevention & Best Practices

• Label smartly – never print door numbers or company name on the tag; use HERQ QR instead.
• Consistent storage – use a dedicated lanyard/holder and a fixed place at your desk or home.
• Split risk – avoid carrying master keys with personal keyrings.
• Spare strategy – confirm your office has spares and a sign-out policy.
