Hi everybody, I need some help in dealing with fellow technicians apparently ignoring any ESD precautions. How do you explain the importance of preventing ESD on electronics assemblies to your fellow colleagues (or even your boss) without being the smart alec of the situation? Thanks in advance |

HP had a part # for it. Apply anywhere on the cranium or the back of the offending hands with the benefit of timber being static resistant >:D |

I usually keep it short and light like: 'You are not wearing your jewelry' (wrist band) 'Let's put a mat on the table first' 'wrist strap?' People know the how & why so lectures are not needed. Just set the example. |

Simple. Print this message large on yellow paper and pin it to the staff notice board. No ESD protection = No job |

There where several big signs right in your face telling you to 1) disinfect your hands 2) take a facemask and put it on. Even a blind person couldn't miss it. Yet there where people walking in not following the steps. Don't want to start a Covid-19 pro/con discussion; just want to point out that you can't assume people read signs. |
