5S Workplace Organisation

Workshop Overview

The First Crucial Step to Improvement
5S Workplace Organisation is an important foundation to any ‘lean’ initiative. The 5’S are Sort, Simplify, Systematic clean, Standardise and Sustain and they result in an organised working environment that’s capable of supporting and facilitating ongoing process improvements. Participants will learn the steps and techniques for eliminating waste caused by disorganisation and clutter, while creating an ideal working environment. An effective 5S Workplace Organisation initiative clearly communicates to the entire team the need for change at the most basic level and establishes a culture of discipline.

COURSE OBJECTIVE
To teach the step-by-step process for creating a working environment that provides the right resources, tools, and equipment in an organised manner and results in improved efficiency, flow and throughput performance.
