Embodiments relate generally to methods and systems for user association with a gas detector using passive NFC tags. Applicants propose a gas detector with a near-field communication (NFC) reader built into the gas detector, thereby allowing the user to scan their employee identification (ID) badge or a specialized individualized NFC tag. In some embodiments, an NFC tag may be attached to an employee ID badge. The gas detector may communicate via NFC with the badge and/or tag, and may recognize the badge and/or tag as associated with a specific user. When the user starts their shift, the gas detector with an NFC reader can scan the tag and associate the user with the detector and store the information in a log for archival purposes. This process can be completed by the user, and does not require connecting the gas detector to a computer to provide the association. 202- Powering on, a gas detector Placing an NFC tag in proximity to the gas detector, 204 wherein the gas detector comprises an NFC reader, and wherein the NFC tag is attached to an ID badge 206- Receiving, by the gas detector, user information from the NFC tag 208- Associating all further gas exposure data with the user information received from the NFC tag 210 Storing the gas exposure data and associated user information |
