No. Employee badges are considered part of personnel administration and should not be charged to recharge activities.

Beginning 2014-15, no STIP revenue or expense should be allocated to recharge projects. No action is required, as the STIP distribution model is currently allocating STIP earnings to Project 1111111. If the department chooses to utilize earned annual net STIP revenue to offset expenses in the recharge project, instead of transferring the STIP revenue to the recharge project, they should apply a subsidy.

Planning assumptions for GAEL, and other expenses such as Data Network, IT Field Service are posted to the Budget and Resource Management, Operating Budget website.
