Workbenches should have static dissipative or conductive worksurfaces which are grounded or earthed. Any static charge present in tools, components or persons touching the worksurface is then gradually and safely drained away. Damage can occur by too fast a discharge, and for this reason metallic worksurfaces are not recommended.

In practice electrostatic build up in an operator is continuously drained away via a skin contact wrist strap and lead connected to the workbench surface. The worksurface must be earthed or grounded.

Conductive floor mats which are also earthed or grounded are used to conduct electrostatic away from operators approaching the workstation.
