What is a wrist strap?
When operators are standing still, the human body and all apparel is being charged with positive(+) and negative (-) ions, but the apparent potential difference is zero.
However,when the operators' motion make the clothes and body separate, it generates polarizing action. This polarization causes the body to necessitate outward discharge of the ions (such as from fingertips).
On assembly lines with sensitive electronic equipment,electronic components such as ICs get damaged by such electrostatic discharges.
The role of wrist straps is to ground these electrostatic charges to keep the potential of the human body at zero at all times.

When people sweat on metals, small quantities of the metals dissolve in the sweat. The metal ions can react with human proteins, causing inflammation, which is called metal allergies. Nickel, chrome, cobalt, palladium, and tin are likely to cause metal allergies, while titanium, aluminum, magnesium, silver, and iron are unlikely to cause metal allergies.
