Badging for New Employees

If a company requires unescorted driving privileges in the Secured Area, An Airfield Access Request must be submitted by the DEN Project Manager (PM) that oversees your project.  Please contact your DEN representative or sponsoring company to initiate the approval process for Secured Area gate access.

Once approved, the company must comply with DEN’s Driver Training Program and Risk Department.

DEN Driver Training Department will conduct a route familiarization and Train the Trainer for your company.

All companies that have Unescorted Driving privileges must carry the appropriate level of insurance.  $10 million for Unescorted Driving on the airfield or $1 million for tunnel driving only.  For all questions concerning insurance the DEN Risk Department can be reached via email at: [email protected].

Every company at DEN is required to submit a badge return plan to Airport Security with details on how the company will hold each employee accountable to ensure the DEN Airport ID badge is returned to Airport Security upon employee separation. This plan should include contingencies for this to occur during any time of day.
