Introduction
5S is much more than just “housekeeping”. Housekeeping and an organized workplace are the results of 5S, but the real purpose of 5S is to uncover errors and problems more quickly.
Learn to reduce waste through a systematic application of 5S principles – Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain. This workshop teaches the basic 5S techniques and illustrates that its implementation immediately reduces waste and provides a cleaner, safer work environment.
5S is method of creating, maintaining and improving a clean and orderly workplace that exposes waste and errors. It helps identify unplanned levels of inventory, inadequate work processes, wasted time and equipment inefficiencies.
5S is a great place to start on your continuous improvement initiative, because it promotes an action oriented approach to change and allows everyone in the organisation to get involved and provide input with improving their workplace.
