It doesn’t. It has to be connected to the ground with a wire. Those bracelets that claim they ground you, but don’t have a lead coming off of them are scams.

I have seen a video were someone tested one of those spike bracelets, and found that the sharp points were making it discharge into the air. but because it’s not meant for that, it’s not reliable.
