Sort • Set in Order • Shine • Standardise • Sustain
5S is a workplace organisation method focused on eliminating waste.
It is a defined, visual and simple method for organising and maintaining the workplace in the optimum condition in order to eliminate waste.
Use 5s to:
- Enable standardised process operation
- Reduce Waste through good organisation
- Easily identify abnormalities
- Encourage teamwork
- Build a foundation for further improvement activities.
Adopting 5S will ensure all clutter is removed; resulting in a safer working environment that everyone should be proud of. Only tools and materials actually required should be held within the work area, each having a designated location for quick retrieval and return.
Our ‘hands on’ training takes people on a journey through the 5Ss, from Sort to Sustain, enabling trainees to see the benefits first hand.
