5S good housekeeping and workplace organization is a set of basic management principles that are widely adopted in industries today. Also commonly known as 5S System, 5S Method and 5S Pillars, the cornerstone of 5S is that untidy, cluttered work areas are unproductive. 5S is a powerful improvement process that gets impressive results. In a nutshell, the five principles or pillars are defined as Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain. Because these words begin with S, they are commonly referred to as 5S.
5S can be applied to make your workplace cleaner and safer and your job simpler and more satisfying. It is about how to create a workplace that is clearly organized, free of clutter, arranged so you can easily find things, and sparkling clean—a place where anyone would be proud to work. In addition, 5S principles form the core elements of Lean thinking and a visual workplace and are a fundamental platform for world-class manufacturing.
In this 5S Techniques PPT training presentation targeted at both manufacturing and office staff, you will learn how to mobilize employees and align your management team to launch or improve a 5S and Visual Management implementation in your organization. The presentation covers 5S and Visual Management best practices, step-by-step implementation guidance, and the best ways to integrate lean 5S into the organization's culture to achieve sustainable world-class excellence.
