What is 5S and why do we want to do it?

What is 5S and why do we want to do it?

5S is in short for:

Sort - Seiri

Set in Order - Seiton

Shine - Seiso

Standardize – Seiketsu

Sustain - Shitsuke

5S represents 5 disciplines for

maintaining a visual workplace (visual

controls and information systems).

These are foundational to Kaizen

(continuous improvement) and a

manufacturing strategy based "Lean

Manufacturing" (waste removing)

concepts.

5S is one of the activities that will help

ensure our company’s survival.

5S

1. Sort - All unneeded tools, parts and supplies are removed from the

area

2. Set in Order - A place for everything and everything is in its place

3. Shine - The area is cleaned as the work is performed

4. Standardize - Cleaning and identification methods are consistently

applied

5. Sustain - 5S is a habit and is continually improved

Also - Work areas are safe and free of hazardous or dangerous conditions

1S – SORT

The first stage of 5S is to organize the work area, leaving only the

tools and materials necessary to perform daily activities.

When “sorting” is well implemented, communication between

workers is improved and product quality and productivity are

increased.

See the difference?

1. Sort - All unneeded tools, parts and supplies are

removed from the area

2. Set in Order - A place for everything and everything is

in its place

2S – SET IN ORDER

The second stage of 5S involves the orderly arrangement of

needed items so they are easy to use and accessible for

“anyone” to find.

Orderliness eliminates waste in production and clerical

activities.

3S – SHIINE

The third stage of 5S is keeping everything clean and swept.

This maintains a safer work area and problem areas are quickly

identified.

An important part of “shining” is “Mess Prevention.” In other

words, don’t allow litter, scrap, shavings, cuttings, etc., to land

on the floor in the first place.

R T

3S Examples - Shine

3. Shine - The area is cleaned as the work is performed

(best) and\or there is a routine to keep the work area

clean.

4S – STANDARDIZE

The fourth stage of 5S involves creating a consistent approach for

carrying out tasks and procedures. Orderliness is the core of

“standardization” and is maintained by Visual Controls. We will

teach the benefits of:

•Signboard strategy

•Signboard uses

•Painting strategy

•Color-coding strategy

•Shadow boarding

Standardize “Best Methods” across the organization

4S Examples - Standardize

5S - SUSTAIN

This last stage of 5S is the discipline and commitment of all other

stages. Without “sustaining”, your workplace can easily revert

back to being dirty and chaotic.

That is why it is so crucial for your team to be empowered to

improve and maintain their workplace.

When employees take pride in their work and workplace it can

lead to greater job satisfaction and higher productivity.
