ABSTRACT:
An EDS tester is combined with an employee identifier and recording monitor so as to provide and audit trail of compliance with the fact of ESD testing and, if desired, a record of the ESD test results such as body resistance or charge. In one illustrative embodiment, a fingerprint identifier pad is used together with the ESD test to identify a unique biological characteristic of the worker being tested. In addition, the feature of providing physical contact with the workers body typically required for ESD testing may be combined with the fingerprint identifier pad thereby enabling the ESD test results to be correlated with a specific individual.
