Product Description
Synopsis
Every company's pursuit of quality improvement must begin with the basics, namely the 5S's - a campaign dedicated to organizing the workplace, keeping it neat and clean, and maintaining the standardized conditions and discipline needed to do a good job. The name '5S' is derived from the first letters of the Japanese terms for; organization (seiri); neatness (seiton); cleaning (seiso); standardization (seiketsu); and discipline (shitsuke). The adoption of these 5S's, company wide, can yield tremendous results: preventing accidents; reducing downtime; enhancing operational control of processes; and creating a healthier corporate climate. This book explores the basic philosophy behind the 5S campaign, explains how every workplace can benefit from its use, discusses how a company can mount a successful 5S movement, and delves into each of the 5S's in detail. A thorough examination of the role the 5S's play, both on the shop floor and in the office environment, is also included. Written in an easy-to-understand style, this text avoids the technical jargon that permeates so much management writing.It is accessible to any reader, underscoring Osada's conviction that the 5S's are for everyone, not just a few experts.
