The document discusses the 5S technique, which is a workplace organization method originally developed in Japan. It consists of five Japanese words that begin with S when translated to English: sort, set in order, shine, standardize, and sustain. The 5S technique aims to organize a workspace for efficiency by identifying necessary items, storing them properly, maintaining cleanliness, standardizing processes, and sustaining the new systems. Implementing 5S can significantly increase productivity by reducing wasted time searching for items and making abnormalities more visible for quick resolution.

5. Discovery of 5s [2] :
• Thirty years ago researchers started studying the secret
of success of Japanese manufacturing companies
• 5S turned out to be the most impressive "secret"
• The factories were so well organized that abnormal
situations were readily apparent
• Equipment were so clean and well maintained that any
problem such as a loose bolt or leaking oil could be easily
seen
• This passion of cleanliness and orderliness became a
hallmark of Japanese organizations

consistently applied

•In this photo you can see a rack
containing the forms and flyers common
in most HR departments
•Let us assume 600 employees need to go
to this rack from time to time, and say on
an average, everyone does this about three
times a year.
•Each person takes 15 minutes to look
through the rack. How much is the search-hours
?
•With 5S’, it came down easily to a
minute or less per visit
•How much is the increase in productivity
?
