After sneaking into the factory, you’ll meet the worker in the section where you need to sneak between the sight zones of patrolling Sentinels. Thankfully, you won’t need to travel far to grab the keys.

The lost worker keys are located in the next room – the one that sees you hiding behind crates of trash which are moving along racks above. Make your way through this room, hiding in the shadow of the crates until you reach the end of the platform and can drop down onto barrels in the water.

Instead of heading straight forward, look to your right and jump toward the barrels that way. These will lead you to the corner of the room, where you’ll find the lost keys on a pile of trash. 

Next you need to return to the worker, which means heading backwards through Sentinels you’ve passed already. You can still use the shadows from the crates, but you’ll need to sprint through the last sections of the Sentinel vision cones to avoid alerting them. If you do get spotted, dash to a box to hide.

Make it back to the worker and he’ll thank you for handing over the keys, granting you the Neco Badge as a reward.
