Key issue at office

Let me give you the background information to understand the situation.
Our office has two doors. When you come through the first door (D1) you get Boardroom, Accountants’ room, reception and another door (D2) to go in to the office. D1 has a chain and a padlock and D2 had a normal key. Peon has the D1 key, receptionist has the D2 key and the manager has the keys to both the doors.

Procedure to follow on opening / closing door is; Peon is supposed to come in the morning open the door, and the employee who leave last from office is supposed to collect the key from the receptionist and lock the.
Simple plan!

No issues in the morning. Problems happen only in the evening. But being an IT company people work late. When they are ready to leave only they realize they didn’t collect the key.

• Recently they have gone without locking the doors. (Padlock was also locked with the chain, so have not put it either)

•  Yesterday the receptionist was on leave and the manager has left office around 6.15 pm. Around 7.00pm when guys realized they don’t have a key they have called the manager and asked for the key, which kind of pissed him off. Anyway the guys locked D1 (only) & left.

Employees’ point of view; we are concentrated on work. We don’t think of locking the door, collecting key etc… when working. Therefore make the receptionist or whoever has the key to hand it over before leaving office to the employees staying till late.

Managements point; you have time to browse internet, check email and all. So cannot you realize that you are working till late half an hour before usual office end time and collect the key?
Both parties have a point…
