Looking to organize your workplace but don’t know where to start? The 5S system guides you through the often complicated process of cleaning, organizing, and sustaining an efficient and productive facility. Originating from Japan and the Lean philosophy, 5S is a tool used to create spaces that are easy to navigate and work in. Although it is a system primarily used in manufacturing facilities and large warehouses, it can be translated to any kind of workplace.
This infographic was designed by Creative Safety Supply to guide you through the 5S process, highlighting benefits and best practices of the system. Most facilities are already making efforts to have a clean and organized workplace, but 5S gives you definitive steps to not only sort through and arrange tools and materials, but to maintain these efforts for years to come.
