Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to biometric identification and electrostatic discharge (ESD) test verification system. Embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems and methods that combine ESD testing and biometric identification technology at a work area, such as a manufacturing workstation, to ensure that an employee is uniquely identified, and that the employee's electrical grounding straps are present and functioning correctly. Based on a result of the ESD testing and a biometric identification used to login at an ESD controlled work area, access to one or more functions of the manufacturing workstation may be granted, denied, or otherwise restricted.
