it’s easy for the employee to be held against their will until they grant access

Wouldn't a much more likely form of attack be to get the employee to innocently touch a (disguised) reader, with a phone providing the link back to an accomplice at the access point? That avoids all the messy and dangerous complications of kidnapping someone. If your colleagues worked out how to do this you might end up paying for a lot of chocolate bars (or biscuits).

This ties into my ongoing series discussing my own NFC chip, clarifying that no I cannot be tracked.

This post might be good enough for a tabloid newspaper, but bear in mind most people reading this on element14 will have some clue about technology. It's an NFC chip. It's just used for the vending machines they sell. Of course there's no GPS.
