There is no requirement for Buddhists to wear beads.
Some Buddhists use beads in a similar way way as Catholics use rosaries to keep track of the number of repetitions of mantras that they have said. Many buddhists use prayer beads (or malas) as a means of counting mantras, the chanting of the name Buddha, or the names of important Boddhisvattas -- which is often done in meditation. Today beads are mostly worn as an emblem of belief and dedication to Buddhism.
