Yeah, we do have wrist straps, heel straps, ESD wax, and grounded ESD mats on all work benches. One guy with long fly-away hair was actually told to wear his hair pinned back as well - so started to wear a ball cap... Genny.

They just make it look good, that's all. ESD flooring, heals straps and wrist bands have function, smocks do not.

Without getting into an electrical field promoting bone growth... As long as he is grounded through heal straps and/or wrist straps, it should be fine. Although I imagine being grounded would neutralize the "Bone Grower"

Antistat sprays are a waste of time and money. These sprays just soaps disolved in water that absorb moisture from the air. Your minimum requirements: Conductive floor mats and wrist straps that are properly grounded. From there, consider using

No one handling floppy disk should have a magnet on his or her wrist or in their work area. Furthermore, those with a magnetic paperclip holder on their desk should not allow floppy disks to come in close proximity to it. Since only technicians handl

LarryP, ESD smocks in combination with a wrist strap provide a path to ground for any charge potential. An operator wearing a smock while grounded will provide a path to ground for the chair. With an ESD chair you can have antistatic or static

For ESD control in the factory we use foot & wrist straps, and ESD smocks. We also have ESD work surfaces including ESD flooring throughout the plant. We have been using ESD chairs and now the question has come up on if and how often these chairs nee
