Lance,

Some people are allergic to nickel.  Could your band have exposed nickel plated surfaces?

Could the band have been acidentally immersed in a solvent/oil/something which is being retained between the links and is constantly being exposed to your operator's skin?

Importance: High


Hello everybody;

We've been experiencing a problem with one of our employees.  She has a
rash that develops when she wears the ESD writs straps.
When the metal comes in contact with her skin the rash shows up within a
few hours.  Are there any good remedies or has any one had this problem
before?  Anything would be appreciated.

Thanks

                        P.  Lance Mayes
