It does work, the only drawback is that it requires the elastic wrist bands on the smocks to establish skin contact. Too often, the operator's clothing comes between the elastic smock sleeve and their wrists. And even if the elastic sleeve does make contact with the operator's skin, you still need the lotion.

Subject: Re: [TN] Wrist strap continuous monitoring

Too easy to trip using the ankle strap.
If not unfastened, like tying shoelaces together.
The line forgets to disconnect the wrist straps on occasion, same would go for the ankle.
The line has tried the ankle on their own.
Sooner or later there is a stumble when they stand up and move.

An alternative is to ground the wrist to the smock and the smock to the ground.
It kept the hands unfettered.
Readings were taken and it worked with the smock, snap, wrist strap combination used at the time.
It was tried because of parts being knocked around on the slide line by the wrist straps.
At the time we were booming and had very high turnover rates on assemblers.
