  Course Overview

5S is a method for workplace organisation which describes how to organise a workplace for maximum efficiency and effectiveness, using five Japanese words. Its main objective is to create a clean, orderly environment where there is a place for everything and everything is in its place. It is one of the most widely adopted techniques from the lean manufacturing toolbox. 

This 5S Training is designed to provide knowledge of the different elements of 5S. Starting with the benefits of 5S to an organisation, it then looks at how to remove unnecessary items, equipment layout, storage methods, and visual management. As well as this, general cleaning, activity planning and resourcing will also be covered, and the concepts of red-tagging and auditing. By the end of the course, delegates will be able to maintain and improve standards and implement plan development.
