The slides vindicate the need to practice 5S to make our job trouble free and less onerous. The slides are formulated by Silky Jain, Anubha Shukla and Sneh Nidhi.

2. “A place for everything, and everything in its place.”
It is a system to reduce waste and optimize productivity.
 The basic pillars of 5s are:

3.  SortingSorting
 ShineShine

4.  StraightenStraighten

5.  StandardizeStandardize
 SustainSustain

6.  SortingSorting
Rotten vegetables are
kept together with fresh
ones
Jars are kept with
vegetables.
 ShineShine
Unwashed utensil
being used

7.  StraightenStraighten
Raw vegetables of
different dishes are kept
together.
 SustainSustain
Use of polythene or
plastic bags even when it
is banned in our country

8.  StandardizeStandardize
Broom is kept over water
container
Uncovered eatables
Dirty work area

9.  SortingSorting
 Review and use the Item disposition list as the criteria for red tagging.
 Set up a separate red tag holding area.
 Remove all the unnecessary items.
 Fill out a log sheet list of all items removed from the area.
 Continue to sort, through Red Tagging, as the other 5S system steps
are implemented.
 StraightenStraighten
 Determine the criteria for relocating ‘out of place’ items.
 Identify and gather needed supplies (bins, labels, tags, colored tape,
etc.)
 Identify and relocate large items, move the items; identify and implement
location indicators for the items that have been moved.
 Identify and relocate small items. Determine the best location, move
them, and identify and implement location indicators.

10.  ShineShine
 Systematically determine targets and assignments.
 Make sure all workers know their assignments.
 Determine appropriate cleaning methods.
 Make sure that the environment is clean and hygienic.
 StandardizeStandardize
 Identify standardization issues.
 Select, test and adopt control ideas.
 Assign responsibilities for condition
maintenance.
 Make all standards clear and obvious.
 SustainSustainEnsure that you have management support for the plan.
Inform and encourage participation through 5s concepts and skills training, 5s communication boards,
photo displays, one-point lessons, study groups, and daily and weekly 5s.
Continue to improve standards and visual methods to make the standards obvious.

11.  By implementing the 5s concept, we allow the increment in
productivity while increasing the quality of output.
 Through the implementation of 5s we get to know the relationship
between root causes of any problem.
 Storage and maintenance cost can also be reduced.
 Reduction in lead time thereby improving product delivery times.
 Decrement in the amount of time wasted searching for tools and
equipment.
 Improves quality by reducing the amount of errors/defects .
 Implements standardization thereby achieving output consistency.
 Establishes spacious, comfortable and visually excellent work place.
 Allows everyone to follow procedure ruling to execute their duty.
 Provides cost-savings by reducing inventory, storage fees and space
requirements.
 Promotes work satisfaction and work moral.
 Provides a clean and bright work environment.
