Anti-Static Wrist Straps and mats are worn when, people need to use any tool or part of body to touch an electronic internaly. The wrist bands and mats have metal on the inside and sometimes outside to absorb the static electricity from your body. They must be connected to some kind of grounding object (usually via gator clamp) like a metel pole, power supply, ect....
If someone where not to wear one of these and touch a static or electric sensitive object like a motherboard for a computer, the static from your body could ark (jump) to the motherboard and couse it to fry or burn up.

If they then touch delicate components on a motherboard, the spark could fry a component, destroying the motherboard. Antistatic mats help prevent static build up. Antistatic wrist straps direct any body static directly to earth before any damage can occur. Touching a water pipe or a computer's chassis has the same affect of getting rid of body static. If children are jumping up and down on a (nylon) trampoline, you will get a spark (static) if they touch you - quite a party trick, especially if the children's hair is also standing up - a sure sign of static electricity!
